Question
Ajay and Bheem collectively earned Rs.9,000 for
completing a task, with Bheem's share being Rs.3,000. If Bheem can complete the work on his own in 48 days, determine the time taken by Ajay alone to complete the same task.Solution
ATQ, Ratio of efficiency of Ajay:Bheem = (9000 – 3000):3000 = 2:1 So, ratio of the time taken by ‘Ajay’ alone to complete the work and ‘Bheem’ alone to complete the same task, respectively = 1:2 Therefore, time taken by ‘Ajay’ alone to complete the work = 48/2 = 24 days
