      Question

      A’ and β€˜B’ together can complete a work in 10 days

      while β€˜A’ takes 18 days to complete the same work alone. If β€˜C’ is 25% more efficient than β€˜B’, then find the time taken by β€˜C’ alone to complete the whole work.
      A 15 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 13 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 18 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 10 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the total work = 90 units Efficiency of (A + B) = 90/10 = 9 units/day Efficiency of β€˜A’ = 90/18 = 5 unit/day Therefore, efficiency of β€˜B’ = 9 – 5 = 4 units/day Efficiency of β€˜C’ = 1.25 Γ— 4 = 5 units/day Required time taken = 90/5 = 18 days
