Question

    P’s 2 days work is equal to Q’s 5 days work. If P and Q together can complete the work in 30 days then how much time Q will take to complete 60% of the work?

    A 60 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 48 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 63 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 44 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Ratio of efficiency of P and Q = 5:2 Let the efficiency of P and Q be 5x and 2x units per day respectively. Total work = 7x × 30 = 210x units Required time = (0.60 × 210x)/2x = 63 days
