    Question

    'Akshay' alone can do a piece of work in 25 days. 'Ben'

    alone takes 40 days to do the same work. How much 'Akshay' should be paid out of total wages of Rs. 260, if they worked together for entire duration?
    A Rs. 160 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rs. 120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs. 100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs. 180 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the total work be 200 units {LCM (25 and 40)} So, efficiency of 'Akshay' = 200 ├╖ 25 = 8 units/day And efficiency of 'Ben' = 200 ├╖ 40 = 5 units/day So, share of 'Akshay' = 260 x (8/13) = Rs. 160
