 FV=p1+rnnt

 

FV = Future value of the Deposit

 

p = Principal or Amount of Money deposited

 

r = Annual Interest Rate (in decimal form )

 

n = No of times compounded per year

 

t = time in years

FV=40001+0.0644(5)= 5387.42

Q:

If 6 men and 8 boys can do a piece of work in 10 days while 26 men and 48 boys can do the same in 2 days what is time taken by 15 men and 20 boys?

A) 4 days B) 6 days
C) 7 days D) 5 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4 days

Explanation:

Given that 

6 men and 8 boys can do a piece of work in 10 days 

26 men and 48 boys can do the same in 2 days

 

As the work done is equal,

10(6M + 8B) = 2(26M + 48B)

60M + 80B = 52M + 96B

=> M = 2B

=> B = M/2 ……(1)

 

Now Put (1) in 15M + 20B

=> 15M + 10M = 25M

Now, 6M + 8B in 10 days

=> (6M + 4M) 10 = 100M

Then D(25M) = 100M

=> D = 4 days.
