    A 18.20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 11.25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 10.66 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 13.35 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Total work = 90 units. {LCM of 30 and 45} Efficiency of 'Amit' = 90 ÷ 30 = 3 units/day Efficiency of 'Chetan' = 90 ÷ 45 = 2 units/day Work done in 2d days = 3d + 3d + 2d = 90 8d = 90 d = 11.25
