Question #1
A and B together can complete a piece of work in 8 days. If A alone can complete the same work in 12 days, in how many days can B alone complete it?
A. 24 days
B. 16 days
C. 18 days
D. 20 days

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Total work = LCM(8, 12) = 24 units. Combined efficiency of A and B = 3. Efficiency of A = 2. Efficiency of B = 3 - 2 = 1. Time taken by B alone = 24 / 1 = 24 days.

Question #3
4 men and 6 women can complete a work in 8 days, while 3 men and 7 women can complete it in 10 days. In how many days will 10 women complete it?
A. 40 days
B. 45 days
C. 50 days
D. 35 days

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
Total work = 8 * (4M + 6W) = 10 * (3M + 7W) => 32M + 48W = 30M + 70W => 2M = 22W => 1M = 11W. Total work in terms of women = 8 * (4*11W + 6W) = 8 * 50W = 400 W-days. Time taken by 10 women = 400 / 10 = 40 days.
