Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : ₹ 8000 Given: Time taken by A to complete the work = 5 days Time taken by B to complete the work = 10 days Total amount = ₹ 20000 Concept used: Time ∝ 1/efficiency Total wages = Person’s one-day work × Working days Calculation: Amount to be distributed = 20000 × (60/100) = ₹ 12000 Time taken by A = 5 days Time taken by B = 10 days ⇒ One day work of A = 1/5 ⇒ One day work of B = 1/10 ⇒ Ratio of income = 1/5 : 1/10 = 2 : 1 ⇒ Share A will get = (12000/3) × 2 ∴ A share is ₹ 8000 |
