      Question

      β€˜C’ and β€˜D’ can together complete a piece of

      work in 20 days. If β€˜C’ alone can do it in 50 days, find the number of days β€˜D’ will take to complete it alone.
      A 120/7 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 100/3 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 32/2 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 45/4 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Let total work = LCM(20, 50) = 100 units. Combined efficiency of β€˜C’ and β€˜D’ = 100 Γ· 20 = 5 units/day Efficiency of β€˜C’ = 100 Γ· 50 = 2 units/day Efficiency of β€˜D’ = 5 - 2 = 3 units/day Time taken by β€˜D’ alone = 100 Γ· 3 = (100/3) days
