    Question

    β€˜R’ and β€˜S’ can together finish a job in 18

    days. If β€˜R’ alone can finish it in 30 days, how many days will β€˜S’ alone take?
    A 12 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 28 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 38 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 45 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let total work = LCM (18, 30) = 90 units. Combined efficiency of β€˜R’ and β€˜S’ = 90 Γ· 18 = 5 units/day Efficiency of β€˜R’ = 90 Γ· 30 = 3 units/day Efficiency of β€˜S’ = 5 - 3 = 2 units/day Time taken by β€˜S’ alone = 90 Γ· 2 = 45 days
