The following question based on IBPS RRB PO topic of previous year question answers

Questions : A and B together take 6 days to complete a work. If it is given that A takes 9 days less than B to complete the work alone, then in how many days B alone will complete the work?

(a) 18

(b) 15

(c) 12

(d) 9

e) 8

The correct answers to the above question in:

Answer: (a)

Let the minimum of days taken by B alone to complete the work be x days.

Number of days taken day A alone to complete the work

= x – 9 days

$1/x + 1/\text"x - 9" = 1/6$

$\text"x(x - 9)"/\text"2x - 9" = 6$

x2 - 9x = 12x - 54

x2 - 21x + 54 = 0

x2 - 18x -3x + 54 = 0

x(x - 18) -3(x - 18) = 0

(x - 3)(x - 18) = 0

x = 3 , 18

X cannot be 3 as the number of days can’t be negative for any person

x = 18 days

Number of days taken by B alone = x = 18 days

Hence, the answer is A.
