Key with Solutions

1.   Ans: 5
   Sol: Given, A and B can complete a task in 4 days.
   Therefore, work done by (A+B)
   in 1 day = 1/4
   Work done by A alone in 1 day =1/12
   Therefore, work done by B alone in 1 day = 1/6
   Hence, B alone can complete the work in 6 days.
2.   Ans: 3
   Sol: Given, A and B can complete a task in 8 days.
   Therefore, work done by (A+B)
   in 1 day =1/8
   Work done by B alone in 1 day
   =1/10
   Therefore, work done by A alone in 1 day =1/40
   Hence, A alone can complete the work in 40 days.
3.   Ans: 1
   Sol: Given, A and B can complete a task in 6 days.
   Therefore, work done by (A+B)
   in 1 day =1/6
   Work done by A alone in 1 day
   =1/10
   Therefore, work done by B alone in 1 day = 1/15
   Hence, B alone can complete the work in 15 days.
4.   Ans: 4
   Sol: Given, A and B can complete a task in 4 days.
   Therefore, work done by (A+B)
   in 1 day =1/4
   Work done by A alone in 1 day=1/6
   Therefore, work done by A alone in 1 day =1/12
   Hence, B take 12 days to complete the work.
5.   Ans: 3
   Sol: The time took to type yesterday = 83.33 min
   Priti's speed of typing today = 60 words per min + 15% of 60 words per min
   = 60 + 9 = 69 words per min
   The time took to type today
   = 72.46 min.
   Required difference = 83.33 – 72.46 » 10 min

6.   Ans: 5
   Sol: The time she taken to complete the work yesterday = 300/15 = 20 min.
   The rate of work done by sweta today = rate of yesterday + 40% of rate of yesterday
   = 15 + 6 = 21 units per min
   The time she taken to complete

   the work today = 300/21 = 14.2 min.
   The required difference
   = 20 – 14. 2 » 6 min
7.   Ans: 1
   18 days
8.   Ans: 1
   Sol: 12 days work of 18 women = 9 days work of 12 men
   18 × 12 women = 9 × 12 men
   2 women = 1 man
   8 men + 8 women = 8 men
   + 8/2 men= 8men + 4 men= 12men
   So, 8 men + 8 women or 12 men can do the work in 9 days. (according to the question)
9.   Ans: 2
   Sol: Let 18 men can complete the same work in x days, then
   18 : 24 :: 15 : x
   18 × x = 24 × 15
   x= 20 days
10.   Ans: 5
   Sol: Let 32 men can complete the same work in x days, then
   32 : 22 :: 16 : x
   32 × x = 22 × 16
   x= 11 days
