      Vikas does 65% of a job in 39 days, while Suman does 40% in

      40 days. Vikas worked for 18 days and left. Calculate how many days Suman would need to wrap up the remaining task.
      A 70 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 61 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 52 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 35 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Vikas’ full-time = 39 / 0.65 = 60 days

      Suman’s full-time = 40 / 0.40 = 100 days

      Total work = LCM(60, 100) = 300 units

      Vikas’ efficiency = 300 / 60 = 5 units/day

      Suman’s efficiency = 300 / 100 = 3 units/day

      Work done by Vikas = 18 × 5 = 90 units

      Remaining work = 300 - 90 = 210 units

      Time by Suman = 210 / 3 = 70 days
