∵ B's daily earning = Rs. (150 - 94) = Rs. 56
⇒ A's daily earning = Rs. (150 - 76) = Rs. 74Correct Option: D
∵ B's daily earning = Rs. (150 - 94) = Rs. 56
⇒ A's daily earning = Rs. (150 - 76) = Rs. 74
∴ C's daily earning = Rs. [(150 - (56 + 74)] = Rs. 20

∵ Factory A turns out x cars in one hour. Factory B turns out y/2 cars in one hour.
⇒ In one hour both the factories A and B can turn out (x + y/2) carsCorrect Option: D
∵ Factory A turns out x cars in one hour. Factory B turns out y/2 cars in one hour.
⇒ In one hour both the factories A and B can turn out (x + y/2) cars
∴ In 8 hours both factories turn out = 8( x + y/2) cars
= 4(2x + y) cars.

Since a alone can finish a work in 10 days and B alone can do it in 15 days. So if they work together then the ration of work done by A and B is = (1/10) : (1/15).
Correct Option: C
Since a alone can finish a work in 10 days and B alone can do it in 15 days. So if they work together then the ration of work done by A and B is = (1/10) : (1/15).
∴ The wages A will get = (1/10)[(1/10) + (1/15)] x 75
= Rs. 45
- If 3 men or 4 women can built a wall in 43 days, in how many days can 7 men and 5 women build this wall ?

View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum
3 men = 4 women
∴ 1 man = 4/3 women
∴ 7 men + 5 women = 7 x (4/3) + 5 = 43/3 women
∴ M1D1W2 = M2D2W1Correct Option: D
3 men = 4 women
∴ 1 man = 4/3 women
∴ 7 men + 5 women = 7 x (4/3) + 5 = 43/3 women
∴ M1D1W2 = M2D2W1
∴ 4 x 43 x 1 = (43/3) x D2 x 1
∴ D2 = 3 x 4 = 12 days
- A can do a certain job in 10 days. B is 60% more efficient than A. The number of days, it takes B to do the same piece of work is ?

1 day work of A = 1/10 = 0.1
1 day work of B = 1/10 + 60% of 1/10 = 0.1 + 0.06 = 0.16Correct Option: C
1 day work of A = 1/10 = 0.1
1 day work of B = 1/10 + 60% of 1/10 = 0.1 + 0.06 = 0.16
So number of days taken by B to complete the work = 1/0.16
= 62/3
