booklets.
Thus, in 40 hours they will complete 14 booklets.
8. B
Explanation :
Number of products made by Nakul in 1 hour = 32/6 =
16/3
Number of products made by Ram in 1 hour = 40/5 = 8
Number of products made by both in 1 hour = 16/3 + 8 =
40/3
Time taken by both to make 110 products = 110* 3/40 = 8
¼ hrs
9. C
Explanation :
Assume there are 360 units of work (LCM of 90, 40 and 12).
Hence, they can do 4,9 and 30 units per day or together 43
units every 3 days.
So In 24 days, 43×8=344 units of work is completed.
In the next 2 days, 13 unitsare completed and on 27th day,
Santhosh takes 1/10 thof a day to finish the rest.
So, gopal and vikash worked for 9 days each and have
hence put in 36 and 81 units respectively, and the rest of
the 243 units is put in by santhosh.
The wages shall also be distributed in the same ratio as: Rs
36, Rs 81 and Rs 243.
10. C
Explanation :
Fraction of work completed by Karthik on day 1 and day 2 =
2* 1/30 = 1/15
Fraction of work left after 2 days = 14/15
Fraction of work completed by Both = 1/25 + 1/30 =
11/150
Number of days after day 2 to complete work =
14*150/15*11 = 13 days
So after 2+13 = 15 days works will be completed
11. B
Explanation :
P can complete the work in 25 days and Q can complete the
work in 20 days. So both will complete the work in
(20*25)/45 = 100/9 days

12. A
Explanation :
Let B take X days to complete the work then in one –sixth of
the time i.e. x/6 days. Now A do half work as done by B so A
will take twice the time i.e. 2*x/6 = x/3 to complete the job
alone
So 1/x + 3/x = 1/20, x = 80 days
13. C
Explanation :
Let total work is w and it is given that one-third of the work
is completed after 30 days. Means
M*D = 30*30 = w/3, so total work = 30*30*3
2700 = 30*30 + (30+p)*30, so we get P = 30 (p = additional
men)
14. C
Explanation :
Let additional workers be P,
(50*150)/(50*200) = 3/4 of the work is already completed
and now only 1/4 of the work is to be done. So,
1/4 = ((50 + P) * 25)/50*200, solve for p, we get P = 50
15. B
Explanation :
1/15 + 1/12 + 1/c = 1/6, we got C = 60 (it means C will
take 60 days to complete the work alone)
so ratio of work done by P:Q:R = 4:5:1
so c share = (1/10)*1200 = 120
16. B
Explanation :
A’s one day work = 1/32 so P one day work =
(160/100)*1/32 = 1/20, so P will take 20 days to complete
the work.
So Both A and P will take = (32*20)/52 = 160/13 days
17. B
Explanation :
Let Q take x days to complete the work, so P will take 2*3/4
of X day to complete the work i.e. 3x/2 days
1/x + 2/3x = 1/24, we get x = 40 days, so P will take = 3/2
of 40 = 60 days

Explanation :
(1/12 + 1/15)*(T – 3) + 3/12 = 1
19. E
Explanation :
In one hour number of pages type by neha = 40/5 = 8 and
similarly for sunil it is 60/6 = 10.
Now to type 180 pages they will take, (8 + 10)*T = 180, T =
10 hours
20. A
Explanation :
( 1/90 + 1/60 + 1/45)*1/2 = (1/P +1/Q + 1/R) = 1/40
so 40 days
21. D
22. A
Explanation:
Ratio of times taken by A and B = 1:3
Means B will take 3 times which A will do in 1 time
24. D
Explanation:
In this type of questions, first we need to calculate 1 hours
work, then their collective work as,
= 9/40
then 5x + 2y = 4(x+y)
=> x = 2y
=> x/y = 2/1
=> x:y = 2:1
26. A
Explanation:
To calculate the answer we need to get 1 man per day work
and 1 woman per day work.

Remaining work = 1 - (2/5) = 3/5
(A+B)s 1 days work = (1/25) + (1/20) = 9/100

3A = (B + C) ...(i)
A + B + C = 24 .....(ii)
A + 3A = 24
4A = 24
Therefore, we get

Explanation:
48. A
Explanation:
A : B : C
Ratio of efficiency 3 : 1 : 2
Ratio of No.of days 1/3 : 1/1 : 1/2
or 2 : 6 : 3
Hence A is correct.
49. C
Explanation:
A : C
Efficiency 5 : 3
No of days 3x : 5x
B : C
Days 2 : 3
50. B
Explanation:
34×(x−2)x=(x+7)(x−10)34×(x-2)x=(x+7)(x-10)
⇒x2−6x−280 =0⇒x2-6x-280 =0
=> x= 20 and x=-14
so, the acceptable values is x=20
Therefore, Total work =(x-2)x = 18 x 20 =360 unit
Now 360 = 30 x k
=> k=12 days
51. B
Explanation:
A + B = C + D

15x 15x
Therefore , ratio of efficiency of A:C =10:9
Therefore, ratio of days taken by A:C = 9:10
Therefore, number of days taken by A = 18 days

In one month GIL can do 100/5= 20% of the work. Along with
NCC, it is able to do 100/4 = 25% of the work in one month. So,
amount of work done by NCC = 5% in a month. So, in the 4
months NCC has done 5*4 = 20% of the work. So, share of NCC =
20% of Rs. 35, 00, 000 = Rs. 7, 00, 000.Out of these as Sanjeev’s
team is only 75% as efficient as Ramesh’s team, the money will
be divided in the ratio of efficiency: Sanjeev’s team efficiency:
Ramesh’s Team Efficiency = 75: 100 = 3: 4.
So, money earned by Sanjeev’s team = (3/7)× Rs.7,00,000 =
Rs.3,00,000.

Equate the amount of work in terms of man – hours and volume
of the platform.
15 workers, 4 hours a day, 25 days == 120 * 10 * 14
12 workers, 5 hours a day, N days = = 600 * 14 * 12 Taking the
ratio,
(15*4*25)/( 12 *5*N)=(120 *10 * 14)/(600 *14 * 12)? N = 150.
They will take 150 days.

Remaining work done by Arun and Bala = 5/8
Worked together = (5/8)/(15/280) = 35/3 days.
76. C
Explanation :
Efficiency of Kiran = 5%
Efficiency of Karan = 4%
They will complete only 90% of the work = [(5+4)*10] =90
Remaining work done by Suman = 10%.
Share of Suman = 10/100 * 1000 = 100
77. C
Explanation :
Explanation:
7I + 4Am = 1/6
7Af + 4Am = 1/8
7I + 7Af + 7Am = 7/24
1I + 1Af + 1Am = 1/24
One Indian One American and One African will complete the
work in – 24 days.
78. B
Explanation :
No of days taken by Arun = 12 days
No of days(Arun:Bala:Chitra) = 2:3:1
1 day work of (Arun+Bala) = 5/36
1 day work of (Bala+Chitra) = 8/36
1 day work of (Chitra+Arun) = 9/36
5 days total work – 35/36
1/36 is done by Arun-Chitra
Number of days taken by Arun-Chitra for the rest of the work =
(1/36)/(9/36) = 1/9
Total time taken to complete the work = 5 + 1/9 = 46/9 days

Explanation :
A’s 5 days work = 50%
B’s 5 days work = 33.33%
C’s 2 days work = 16.66%[100- (50+33.33)] Ratio of contribution
of work of Arun, Bala and Chitra = 3 : 2 : 1
Arun’s total share = Rs. 3000
Bala’s total share = Rs. 2000
Chitra’s total share = Rs. 1000
Arun’s one day’s earning = Rs.600
Bala’s one day’s earning = Rs.400
Chitra’s one day’s earning = Rs.500
81. B
Explanation :
Explanation:
D * x +(100- D) * 2x= 150x
=> D= 50 days
work done in 50 days = 50x
Total work = 150x
50x/150x * 100 = 100/3
82. B
Explanation :
3/4 * (x-2)x = (x+7)(x-10)
x – 6x – 280 = 0
x = 20; x = -14
(x-2)x = 18 * 20 = 360
360 = 30 * y
y = 12 days
83. C
Explanation :
Ratio of number of days = 9:10:15
Work done By B and C in first two days = 2*1/6 = 1/3
Rest of the work = 2/3
Number of days = (2/3)/(1/9) = 6 days
84. B
Explanation :
1/x + 1/2x = 1/20 + 1/30
3/2x = 1/12

Explanation :
Assume working days
A = x, B = 2x, C = 2y, D = 3y
1/x+1/2x = 1/2y+1/3y
And 2x-2y = 16
Solving we get x = 18 days.
86. B
Explanation :
15*(1/80+1/60) + 15*(1/120+1/40) + x*(1/40+1/60) = 1
X= 3/2 = 1.5
87. C
Explanation :
First day = 1/30
Second day = 1/30+1/45
Third day = 1/30+1/60
3 days work = 3/30+1/45+1/60 = 25/180
3*7 = 21 days work = 175/180
Now 1/36 work is left which can be completed by A alone
1/36*30 = 5/6
21+5/6 = 21 5/6 Days
88. B
Explanation :
Ramu takes 25 days to complete work.
Raju = 50 days Venu = 100 days
Now 70% work is left
They can complete whole work in = 1/ 1/25+1/50+1/100
100/7 days then 70% in 10 days
