      ‘C’ and ‘D’ can complete a job in 20 days and 25

      days respectively. They completed it together for Rs. 9,000. What will be C’s share?
      A 6000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 7000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 5000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 3600 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the total work be 100 units (LCM of 20 and 25)

      Efficiency of ‘C’ = 100 / 20 = 5 units/day

      Efficiency of ‘D’ = 100 / 25 = 4 units/day

      So, ‘C’ would get = 9000 × (5 / (5+4)) = 9000 × (5/9) = Rs. 5,000

      Alternate solution:

      Ratio of efficiency = 25:20 = 5:4

      C’s share = 9000 × (5/9) = Rs. 5,000
