Rs. 60
Rs. 20
Rs. 15
Rs.13
Solution:
Let us assume that B, C and D are paying Rs. 2x. So A is paying Rs. x. The total amount being paid by A,B, C and D = 3x = Rs. 60, hence, the amount paid by A = x/3x = 1/3rd of the total.)
So, the amount paid by A = 60/3 = Rs. 20
Similarly, B is paying 1/4th of the total and C is paying 1/5th of the total.
Hence, the amount paid by B and C are Rs. 15 and Rs. 12 respectively.
So, the amount paid by D = Rs. 13

10 days
Solution:
Since the ratio of efficiency of Pranesh and Saket = 100: 160
= 5 : 8
The number of days taken by Pranesh and Saket will be in the ratio of 8: 5
Since, Pranesh takes 15 days to do this work, Saket will take 15 × 5/8 = 9.37 days.
