Answers & Solution

1. Option A.

Let x = original number of workers
So, ATQ, 22x = 24(x – 3)
or, 22x = 24x – 72
⇒ x = 36

2. Option B.

The number of days taken by A, B and C to complete the work while working together-

3. Option (B)

Assuming Capacity of Tank=4*5=20L
Tap 1 = 20/4 =5L/h
Tap 2 = 20/5= 4L/h
After 4 hours ,total filled=5+4+5+4=18L
Time taken for Remaining=2/5hours =24min
So. Total time= 4h 24min

4. Option (B)

20W×16=16M×15
Man/Woman=4/3

5. Option (C)

(5W+2M)’s 1 day work= (1W+1M)’s 4 Day’s Work
5W+2M=4W+4M
W/M =2/1

6. Option (D)

No. of Days= 1/(7/14*12 + 5/14*15) = 15 3/11 Days

7. Option (B)

The Cistern is to be filled in 12 min. Second pipe can fill only 12/24=1/2 of the cistern in total time.
This means the other half of the tank will be filled in 10 min.

8. Option (B)

9. Option (C)

10B*10=12G*10
5B=6G
(15B+6G)X=10B*10
20B.X=10B*10
X=5 days

10. Option (B)
