      Question

      A and B can complete a task together in 12 days, while B

      alone takes 24 days to finish it. A began working alone and left after ‘x’ days, after which B completed the remaining work in 18 days. Determine the percentage of the total work completed by A.
      A 25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 68 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 84 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 79 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let total amount of work be 16 units
      Efficiency of (A + B) = 16/8 = 2 units/day
      Efficiency of ‘B’ = 16/16 = 1 unit/day
      Amount of work done by ‘B’ = 12 × 1 = 12 units
      Percentage of work done by ‘A’ = {(16 – 12)/16} × 100 = 25%
