A can complete a work in 18 days and B in 36 days. After working together for 5 days, what percentage of work remains? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Explanation:
Total work = LCM(20, 30) = 60 units. Efficiency of A = 3, B = 2. Combined efficiency = 5 units/day. In 7 days, work done = 7 * 5 = 35 units. Remaining work = 60 - 35 = 25 units. C takes 10 days to do 25 units, so efficiency of C = 25 / 10 = 2.5 units/day. Time taken by C for full work = 60 / 2.5 = 24 days.

Explanation:
Total work = LCM(20, 30) = 60 units. Efficiency of A = +3, B = -2. In 2 days (A then B), net work done = 3 - 2 = 1 unit. We need to reach 60 units. Since A can add 3 units on his turn, we find when work reaches 60 - 3 = 57 units. 57 units will be done in 57 * 2 = 114 days. On the 115th day, A works and completes 3 units, making the total work 57 + 3 = 60 units. So, the wall is built in 115 days.

Explanation:
Total work = 440 man-days. Time = 440/25 = 17.6 days.
