Q:

A alone can do a work in 20 days. B is 125% more efficient than A. A and B started working and worked for 4 days. If C alone completed the remaining job in 22 days. How many days C alone takes to complete the entire job?

A) 30 B) 35
C) 40 D) 42
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 40

Explanation:
A alone can do = 20days 
 
Efficiency ratio of A & B= 4 : 5

Time required will be in ratio = 5:4

B alone will do it in =16 days

LCM of (16,20)= 80 ,
 
Assume work size of 80 units

 

1 day work of A= 4 units 1 day work of B= 5 units

 

Work done by both in 4 days= 4*(5+4)= 36 units

 

Work left= 80-36= 44 units

 

Now C takes 22 days to complete= 44 units.

 

Time taken by C alone to complete the work= 40 days

Q:

The ratio of the speed of Two trains is 5:8. Sum of their length is 660. The ratio of time taken to cross an Electric Pole by train A and B is 4:3. What is the difference between the length of two trains?

A) 50m B) 40m
C) 60m D) 45m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 60m

Explanation:

Ans.
Given that length of first train + length of second train = 660
Speed of first train : Speed of second train = 5:8 =5x : 8x
Time taken to cross the poll by two trains = 4:3 =4y:3y
Now ,
(5x*4y) + (8x*3y) = 660
44xy = 660
xy = 15
L1 - L2 = 24xy -20xy = 4xy = 60 m
