Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 2

Working together Bala and Chitra take 50% more number of days than Angel, Bala and Chitra together take and Angel and Bala working together, take 8/3 more number of days than Angel, Bala and Chitra take together. If Angel, Bala and Chitra all have worked together till the completion of the work and Bala has received Rs.120 out of total earnings of Rs. 480 then in how many days did Angel, Bala and Chitra together complete the whole work?

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 2

The days ratio of (Angel + Bala + Chitra) : (Bala + Chitra) = X:3X/2 = 2X:3x;
Efficiency ratio = 3X:2X
Efficiency of Angel = x.
(480/3X) = Rs.160
Amount received by Bala = Rs.120 & Chitra = 200
160:120:200 =4:3:5
1/4:1/3:1/5= 15:20:12;
(1/15+1/12+1/20)*Y = 1

Angel can do a piece of work in 10 days, Balu in 15 days. They work together for 5 days, the rest of the work is finished by Chitra in two more days. If they get Rs. 6000 as wages for the whole work, what are the daily wages of Angel, Bala and Chitra respectively?

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 3

Angel’s 5 days work = 50%
Balu’s 5 days work = 33.33%
Chitra’s 2 days work = 16.66%
[100- (50+33.33)]
Ratio of work of Angel, Balu and Chitra = 3: 2: 1
Angel’s total share = Rs. 3000
Balu’s total share = Rs. 2000
Chitra’s total share = Rs. 1000
Angel’s one day’s wage = Rs.600
Balu’s one day’s wage = Rs.400
Chitra’s one day’s wage = Rs.500

Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 4

Ravi can do a piece of work in 16 days. Rakesh can do the same work in 64/5 days, while Geeta can do it in 32 days. All of them started to work together but Ravi leaves after 4 days. Rakesh leaves the job 3 days before the completion of the work. How long would the work last?

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 4

Let the work lasted for x days,
Ravi’s 4 day’s work + Rakesh (x – 3) day’s work + Geeta’s x day’s work = 1
⇒ (4/16) + (x – 3) / (64/5) + x/32 = 1
⇒ 5(x – 3)/64 + x/32 = 1 – 1/4
⇒ [5(x – 3) + 2x] / 64 = 3/4
⇒ 7x – 15 = 48
∴ x = (48 + 15)/7 = 63/7 = 9 days

Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 5

Ramu, Hari and Sanjay are three typists, who working simultaneously, can type 228 pages in four hours. In one hour, Sanjay can type as many pages more than Hari as Hari can type more than Ramu. During a period of five hours, Sanjay can type as many passages as Ramu can, during seven hours. How many pages does each of them type per hour?

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 5

Let Rohit, Harsh and Sanjeev can type x, y and z pages respectively in 1 h. Therefore, they together can type 4(x + y + z) pages in 4 h
∴ 4(x + y + z) = 228
⇒ x + y + z = 57 …..(i)
Also, z – y = y – x
i.e., 2y = x + z ……(ii)
5z = 7x ……(iii)
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
3y = 57
⇒ y = 19
From Eq. (ii), x + z = 38
x = 16 and z = 22

Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 6

Efficiency of A is 25% more then B and B takes 25 days to complete a piece of work. A started a work alone and then B joined her 5 days before actual completion of the work. For how many days A worked alone?

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 6

Efficiency (A : B) = 5 : 4
Number of days(A : B) = 4x : 5x = 4x : 25
∴ Number of days required by A to finish the work alone = 4x
= 4 x 5 = 20.
A and B work together for last 5 days = 5 x 9 = 45%
Efficiency of A = 5% and B’s efficiency = 4%
∴ No. of days taken by A to complete 55% work = 55/5 = 11days

Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 7

In a cucumber factory, there are equal number of women and children. Women work for 8 h a day and children for 6 h a day. During festival time, the work load goes up by 50%. The government rule does not allow children to work for more than 8 h a day. If they are equally efficient and the extra work is done by women, then extra hours of work put in by women every day are?

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 7

Let extra hours a day are x.
According to the formula,
(M1D1T1) / W1 = (M2D2T2) / W2
⇒ [1 x 1 x (8 + 6)] / 1 = [1 x 1 x (8 + 8 + x)] / 3/2
⇒ (3/2) x 14 = 16 + x
⇒ 21= 16 + x
∴ x = 21 – 16 = 5

A building contractor undertook to finish a certain work in 162 days and employed 150 men. After 72 days, he found that he had already done 2/3 of the work. How many men can be discharged now, so that the work finish in time?

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 8

M1 = 150, M2 = 150 – n, D1 = 72, D2 = 90
W1= 2/3 and W2 = 1/3
According to the formula,
(M1D1) / W1 = (M2D2) / W2
⇒ [150 x 72] / 2 = [(150 – n) x 90] / 1
⇒ (150 x 72) / (2 x 60) = (150 – n)
⇒ (150 – n) = 60
∴ n = 150 – 60 = 90

Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 9

Sanjay can do a piece of work in 50 days. He started the work and left after some days, when 25% work was done. After it Ajit joined and completed it working for 25 days. In how many days Sanjay and Ajit can do the complete work, working together?

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 9

Efficiency of Sanjay = (100/50) = 2%
Rest work = 75%
∴ Efficiency of Ajit = 75/25 = 3%
∴ Combined efficiency of Sanjay and Ajit = 5%
∴ Number of days required by Sonu and Abhijeet, to work together = 100/5 = 20 days.

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 10

Efficiency of Kiran and Kumar = 11.11 + 5.55 = 16.66%
Work done in 3 days = 3 x 16.66 = 50%
Rest work done by Kiran, Kumar and Sanjay = 50/50 = 1 day
Work can be completed in 4 days.

Arun, Bipasha and rahul’s 1 day work = 1/10 + 1/50 = 6/50 = 3/25
Arun’s 1 day work = Bipasha + Rahul ‘s 1 day work
2*(Arun’s 1 day work) = 3/25
Arun’s 1 day work = 3/50
Bipasha’s 1 day work = 1/10 – 3/50 = 2/50 = 1/25

Detailed Solution for Time And Work - MCQ 2 - Question 13

Assume the total work to be 600 units. (LCM of all the numbers) Then Sandeep’s 1 day work = 8 units.
All three’s 1 day work = 40 units.All work together in the first 2 days
Work done in the first 2 days = 40 × 2 = 80 units
Sandeep alone works during the last 40 days
Work done in the last 40 days = 40 × 8 = 320 units
Remaining work = 600 – (320 + 80) = 200 units
This work is done by pradeep and sandeep in 10 days.
Pradeep and Sandeep together’s 1 day work = 20 units
Sekar’s 1 day work = All three 1 day work – Pradeep and Sandeep together’s 1 day
