Q:

A is twice efficient as B and together they do the same work in as much time as C and D together. If C and D can complete the work in 20 and 30 daysrespectively, working alone ,then in how many days A can complete the work individually:

A) 12 days B) 18 days
C) 24 days D) 30 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 18 days

Explanation:

                                              A     +      B        =      C     +     D 

                                              |              |                 |             | 

    Ratio of efficiency         10x   +    5x               9x     +   6x 

                                             |________|                 |_________|   

                                                   15x                           15x 

Therefore , ratio of efficiency of A:C  =10:9 

Therefore,  ratio of days taken by A:C = 9:10 

Therefore, number of days taken by A = 18 days
