3 women and 18 children together take 2 days to complete a piece of work. How many days will 9 children alone take to complete the piece of work if 6 women alone can complete the piece of work in 3 days?1). 92). 73). 54). 6

Answer»

Solution

6 women complete a piece of work in 3 days.

Hence, ONE woman can complete $\frac{1}{18}$ piece of work in one DAY.

3 women and 18 children take 2 days to complete the work.

3 women in 2 days complete $3*2*\frac{1}{18}=\frac{1}{3}$

Hence, in two days 18 children complete $1-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{2}{3}$ of the work.

So, amount of work done by 1 CHILD in a day is $\frac{2}{3}*\frac{1}{36}=\frac{1}{54}$

So, 9 children complete $9*\frac{1}{54}=\frac{1}{6}$ part of the work in a day.

Hence, the number of days in which 9 children alone complete the work is $6$

6.

A and B can complete a piece of work in 80 and 120 days respectively. They together start the work but A left after 20 days. After another 12 days C joined B and now they complete the work in 28 more days. In how many days C can complete the work, working alone?1). 100 days2). 112 days3). 120 days4). 126 days

Answer»

Solution

A did the WORK for 20 days, B did the work for (20 + 12 + 38) = 60 days, C did the work for 28 days.

Let C alone can complete the work in X days.

Fraction of work did by A + Fraction of work did by B + Fraction of work did by C = 1

Or 20/80+60/120+28/x=1

Or x=28×4 = 112 days

C alone can complete the work in 112 days

7.

9 women can complete a piece of work in 19 days. How many days will 18 women take to complete the same piece of work ?1). 12 days2). 6.5 days3). 9 days4). 8.5 days

Answer»

Solution

As 9 women takes 19 DAYS to complete a PIECE of work , then let say that 18 women will take a days to complete the same work.

using $\frac{M1D1}{W1}=\frac{M2D2}{W2}$

$\frac{9\times19}{W}=\frac{18D2}{W}$

Days REQUIRED = 9.5 days

Hence option E is correct


8.

56 men can do a job in 14 days. How many additional men are required to do the same job in 8 days?1). 422). 243). 52.4). 25

Answer»

Solution

Let the extra men REQUIRED be M

using the formula

$\FRAC{M1D1}{W1}$ = $\frac{M2D2}{W2}$

$\frac{56 \times14 }{W}$ = $\frac{8(M+14)}{W}$

M +56 = 98

M = 42 men
