    Question

    A is twice as efficient as B. Together they can complete

    a work in 18 days. In how many days can A alone complete the work?
    A 21 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 27 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 17 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 10 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let B’s 1-day work = x Then A’s 1-day work = 2x Together: 3x = 1/18 x = 1/54 So A’s rate = 2x = 2/54 = 1/27 Hence A alone takes 27 days.
