Dear Readers,
In continuance to the "MISSION CGL MAINS 2015", we are providing you a Short tricks and a quiz on Time and Work in Quant Section.that can be helpful for all the SSC Mains exam, SSC aspirants exam including FCI Exam.
Important facts:
(a) If A can do a piece of work in n days, then A’s 1 day's work = 1/n
(b) If A’s 1 day’s work = 1/n, then A can finish the work in n days.
(c) If A is thrice as good a workman as B, then:
Ratio of work done by A and B = 3:1
Ratio of times taken by A and B to finish a work= 1:3
then the general formula in the relationship of
M1 D1 W2 = M2 D2 W1
1.More men less days and conversely more days less men.
2.More men more work and conversely more work men.
3.More days more work and conversely more work days.
Work & Wages
Wages are distributed in proportion to the work done and in indirect (or inverse) proportion to the time taken by the individual.
There are two methods: -
Eg. A can do a work in 3 days and B can do the same work in 5 days. The contract for the work is Rs. 240. How much shall B get If both of them work together.
Methods I : -
A’s 1 day’s work = 1/3; B’s 1 days work = 1/5
Ratio of their wages = 1/3:1/5=5∶3
B’s share = 240/(5+3) ×3 = Rs. 90
Methods II : -
As wages are distributed in inverse proportion of number of days, their share should be in the ratio 5 : 3
B’s share = 240/8 ×3 = Rs. 90
