Question : 6 [SSC CGL Prelim 2003]
A can finish a work in 24 days, B in 9 days and C in 12 days. B and C start the work but are forced to leave after 3 days. The remaining work was done by A in :
a) 6 days
b) 10 days
c) 10$1/2$ days
d) 5 days
Answer »Answer: (b)
Work done by (B + C) in 3 days.
= $3 × (1/9 + 1/12)$
= $1/3 + 1/4 = {4 + 3}/12 = 7/12$
Remaining work = $1 - 7/12 = 5/12$
This part of work is done by A alone.
Now, $1/24$ part of work is done by A in 1 day.
∴ $5/12$ part of work will be done by A in
= $24 × 5/12$ = 10 days.
Question : 7 [SSC CGL Prelim 2007]
A and B can complete a piece of work in 12 and 18 days respectively. A begins to do the work and they work alternatively one at a time for one day each. The whole work will be completed in
a) 15$2/3$ days
b) 16$1/3$ days
c) 18$2/3$ days
d) 14$1/3$ days
Answer »Answer: (d)
A’s 1 day’s work = $1/12$
B’s 1 day’s work = $1/18$
Part of work done by A and B in first two days
= $1/12 + 1/18 = {3 - 2}/36 = 5/36$
Part of work done by A and B in 14 days = $35/36$
[14 days to be taken randomly]
Remaining work = $1 - 35/36 = 1/36$
Now A will work for 15th day.
A will do the $1/36$ work in $1/36 × 12 = 1/3$ day.
Total Work will be done in $14{1}/3$ days.
Question : 8 [SSC DEO & LDC 2013]
A and B can together finish a work in 30 days. They worked together for 20 days and then B left. After another 20 days, A finished the remaining work. In how many days A alone can finish the job ?
a) 60 days
b) 48 days
c) 54 days
d) 50 days
Answer »Answer: (a)
(A+B)’s 1 day’s work = $1/30$
(A + B)’s 20 day’s work = $20/30 = 2/3$
Remaining work = $1 - 2/3 = 1/3$
Now, $1/3$ part of work is done by A in 20 days.
Whole work will be done by A alone in 20 × 3 = 60 days.
Question : 9 [SSC MTS 2013]
A, B and C can complete a work in 10, 12 and 15 days respectively. They started the work together. But A left the work before 5 days of its completion. B also left the work 2 days after A left. In how many days was the work completed?
a) 5 days
b) 7 days
c) 8 days
d) 4 days
Answer »Answer: (b)
Let the work be completed in x days.
According to the question,
${x - 5}/10 + {x - 3}/12 + x/15$ = 1
${6x - 30 + 5x - 15 + 4x}/60$ = 1
15x - 45 = 60
15x = 105 ⇒ x = $105/15$ = 7
Hence, the work will be completed in 7 days.
Question : 10 [SSC CPO S.I.2004]
A and B can do a work in 45 days and 40 days respectively. They began the work together but A left after some time and B completed the remaining work in 23 days. After how many days of the start of the work did A leave ?
a) 9 days
b) 8 days
c) 5 days
d) 10 days
Answer »Answer: (a)
(A + B)’s 1 day’s work
= $(1/45 + 1/40) = {8 + 9}/360 = 17/360$
Work done by B in 23 days
= $1/40 × 23 = 23/40$
Remaining work = $1 - 23/40 = 17/40$
Now, $17/360$ work was done by (A + B) in 1 day
$17/40$ work was done by (A + B) in $1 × 360/17 × 17/40$ = 9 days.
Hence, A left after 9 days.
Using Rule 26A and B can do a piece of work in x and y days, respectively. Both begin together but after some days.A leaves the job and B completed the remaining work in a days. After how many days did A leave?Required time, t = $\text"(y - a)"/\text"(x + y)" × x$
Here, x = 45, y = 40, a = 23
Required time t= $\text"(y - a)"/\text"(x + y)" × x$
t = ${(40 - 23) × 45}/{45 + 40} = {17 × 45}/85$
t = 9 days
