      Question

      A can finish a job in 30 hours while B can finish it in

      20 hours. If C is (300/7)% more efficient than A and B together, then find the time taken by C alone to complete the work.
      A 12 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 4.5 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 7.5 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 10 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Let the total work be LCM of (30 and 20) = 60 units
      Work done by A in one hour = 60 Γ· 30 = 2 units
      Work done by B in one hour = 60 Γ· 20 = 3 units
      Work done by A and B together in one hour = 2 + 3 = 5 units
      Work done by C in one hour = 5 + (300/7)% of 5 = 5 + 3 = 8 units
      Time taken by C alone = 60 Γ· 8 = 7.5 hours
