Question : 16 [SSC CHSL 2012]
Two men undertake a job for Rs.960. They can complete it in 16 days and 24 days respectively. They work along with a third man and take 8 days to complete it. Then the share of the third man should be
a) Rs.155
b) Rs.165
c) Rs.150
d) Rs.160
Answer »Answer: (d)
Using Rule 25,
Work done by the third person in 1 day
= $1/8 - 1/16 - 1/24 = {6 - 3 - 2}/48 = 1/48$
Ratio of their 1 day’s work
= $1/16 : 1/24 : 1/48$ = 3 : 2 : 1
Share of the third person
= $1/(3 + 2 + 1) × 960 = 960/6$ = Rs.160
Question : 17 [SSC CGL Tier-I 2013]
A can do a piece of work in 12 days while B alone can do it in 15 days. With the help of C they can finish it in 5 days. If they are paid Rs.960 for the whole work how much money A gets ?
a) Rs.480
b) Rs.240
c) Rs.400
d) Rs.320
Answer »Answer: (c)
Rule 2 and Rule 25,
Work done by A and B in 5 days
= $5(1/12 + 1/15) = 5({5 + 4}/60)$
= $9/12 = 3/4$
Time taken by C in doing $1/4$ work = 5 days
C will complete in 20 days.
Ratio of wages = $1/12 : 1/15 : 1/20$ = 5 : 4 : 3
Amount received by A
=$5/12 × 960$ = Rs.400
Question : 18 [SSC CGL Prelim 2003]
If 6 persons working 8 hours a day earn Rs.8400 per week, then 9 persons working 6 hours a day will earn per week
a) Rs.8400
b) Rs.16800
c) Rs.16200
d) Rs.9450
Answer »Answer: (d)
More persons, more earning, Less working hours, less earning = Direct proportion
∴ ${6 : 9}/{8 : 6}]$ : : 8400 : x
where x = required earning
Therefore, 6 × 8 × x = 9 × 6 × 8400
or $x ={9 × 6 × 8400}/{6 × 8}$ = Rs.9450
Using Rule 1If $M_1$ men can finish $W_1$ work in $D_1$ days and $M_2$ men can finish $W_2$ work in $D_2$ days then, Relation is${M_1D_1}/{W_1} = {M_2D_2}/{W_2}$ andIf $M_1$ men finish $W_1$ work in $D_1$ days, working $T_1$ time each day and $M_2$ men finish $W_2$ work in $D_2$ days, working $T_2$ time each day, then${M_1D_1T_1}/{W_1} = {M_2D_2T_2}/{W_2}$
Here, $M_1 = 6, T_1$ = 8, wages = x
$M_2 = 9, T_2$ = 6, wages = 8400
6 × 8 × x = 9 × 6 × 8400
$x = {9 × 6 × 8400}/{6 × 8}$ = Rs.9450
Question : 19 [SSC CGL Tier-I 2014]
A skilled, a half skilled and an unskilled labourer work for 7, 8 and 10 days respectively and they together get Rs.369 for their work. If the ratio of their each day’s work is $1/3 : 1/4 : 1/6$, then how much does the trained labourer get (in rupees) ?
a) 164
b) 102.50
c) 143.50
d) 201.50
Answer »Answer: (c)
Using Rule 25,
Skilled : half skilled : unskilled
= $1/3 : 1/4 : 1/6$
= $(1/3 × 12) : (1/4 × 12) : (1/6 × 12)$
= 4 : 3 : 2
Share of the trained labourer
= $28/{7 × 4 + 8 × 3 + 2 × 10} × 369$
= $28/{(28 + 24 + 20)} × 369$
= $28/72 × 369$ = Rs.143.50
Question : 20 [SSC CGL Prelim 2005]
A man and a boy received Rs.800 as wages for 5 days for the work they did together. The man’s efficiency in the work was three times that of the boy. What are the daily wages of the boy ?
a) Rs.76
b) Rs.56
c) Rs.40
d) Rs.44
Answer »Answer: (c)
Man : boy = 3 : 1
Boy's share = $1/4 × 800$ = Rs.200
The daily wages of boy
= Rs.$(200/5)$ = Rs.40
Using Rule 16If the efficiency to work of A is twice the efficiency to work of B, then, A:B (efficiency) = 2x:x and A:B (time) = t:2t
A:B = 3x:x and A:B = t:3t
Share of boy
= $t/{t + 3t} × 800$ = 200
Daily wages of boy = $200/5$ = Rs.40
