Answer» Correct Answer - Option 5 : 20 days

Given:

Harish is 50% more efficient than Rajesh.

Rajesh does 26% of work in 13 days.

Concept used:

Work done = Time × Efficiency

Calculation:

Number of days taken by Rajesh = 13 × 100/26 = 50 days

The ratio of efficiency of Harish to Rajesh = 3 ∶ 2

Total work

50 × 2 = 100


Time taken by both of them together to finish the work = 100/(3 +2) = 20 days

Time taken by both to finish the work together is 20 days.
