Q:

P is 30% more efficient than Q. How much time will they, working together, take to complete a job which P alone could have done in 23 days?

A) 16 days B) 13 days
C) 15 days D) 12 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 13 days

Explanation:

Ratio of times taken by P & Q = 100 : 130 = 10:13

 

Let Q takes x days to do the work

Then, 10:13 :: 23:x

=> x = 23x13/10

=> x = 299/10

 

P's 1 day's work = 1/23

Q's 1 day's work = 10/299

(P+Q)'s 1 day's work = (1/23 + 10/299) = 23/299 = 1/13

Hence, P & Q together can complete the work in 13 days.

A) 59 B) 56
C) 64 D) 55

The first letter is E and the last one is R.

 

Therefore, one has to find two more letters from the remaining 11 letters.

 

Of the 11 letters, there are 2 Ns, 2Es and 2As and one each of the remaining 5 letters.

 

The second and third positions can either have two different letters or have both the letters to be the same.

 

Case 1: When the two letters are different. One has to choose two different letters from the 8 available different choices. This can be done in 8 * 7 = 56 ways.

 

Case 2: When the two letters are same. There are 3 options - the three can be either Ns or Es or As. Therefore, 3 ways.

 

Total number of possibilities = 56 + 3 = 59
