Question
Ratio of the work done by P, Q and R in one day is 8:5:9
respectively. They all together can complete the work in 40 days. Q and R worked on it for 32 days. In how many days P will complete the remaining work.Solution
Let total amount work be = 40 x 22 = 880 units Amount of work done by Q and R in 32 days = 32 x 14 = 448 units Amount of work left = 880 – 448 = 432 Required time = 432/8 = 54 days
