Description : P and Q can do a piece of job in 24 days; Q and R can do it in 30 days while R and P can finish it in 40 days. If P, Q, Rworks together, in how many days will they finish the job? In how many days will each ... finish it, working alone? A) 15,25,35,45 B) 20,30,40,120 C) 20,30,40,50 D) 20,25,30,60 

Last Answer : B Time taken by (P + Q) to finish the job = 24days. (P + Q)'s 1 day's job = 1/24 Time taken by (Q +R) to finish the job = 30days. (Q + R)'s 1 day's job = 1/30 Time taken by (R + P) to finish the ... - {(P + Q)'s 1 day's job } = (1/20 -1/24)=1/120 Hence, R alone can finish the job in 120 days.

Karthik is 2 times as good workman as Raghu and together they complete a piece of work in 42 days. The number of days taken by Karthik alone to finish the work is. a) 55 days b) 60 days c) 63 days d) 67 days

Description : Karthik is 2 times as good workman as Raghu and together they complete a piece of work in 42 days. The number of days taken by Karthik alone to finish the work is. a) 55 days b) 60 days c) 63 days d) 67 days
