Question

    Armaan and Bhanu jointly received Rs. 9,000 for completing a task, with Bhanu's share being Rs. 3,000. If Bhanu can complete the work on his own in 48 days, determine the time it takes for Armaan alone to complete the same task.

    A 24 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 25 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 15 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 20 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Ratio of efficiency of Aman:Bhanu = (9000 – 3000):3000 = 2:1 So, ratio of the time taken by ‘Aman’ alone to complete the task and ‘Bhanu’ alone to complete the same work, respectively = 1:2 Therefore, time taken by ‘Aman’ alone to complete the work = 48/2 = 24 days
