Question

P’s 5 days work is equal to Q’s 6 days work. If P and Q together can complete the work in 25 days then how much time Q will take to complete 60% of the work?

A 33 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 38 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 36 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 30 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Ratio of efficiency of P and Q = 6:5 Let the efficiency of P and Q be 6x and 5x units per day respectively. Total work = 11x × 25 = 275x units Required time = (0.60 × 275x)/5x = 33 days
