Q:

16 men and 12 women can complete a work in 20 days. 18 women can complete the same work in 40 days. In how many days will 12 men 27 women complete the same work?

A) 16 days	B) 18 days
C) 19 days	D) 21 days

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 16 days

Explanation:

(16M + 12W) x 20 = 18W x 40

=> 2M = 3W

Then,
Convert all men into women

12M + 27W = 27 + 12 x 3/2W = 45W

Let number of days required be 'D'

Q:

After working for 8 days, Arun finds that only $\frac{1}{3}$ rd of the work has been done. He employs Akhil who is 60% as efficient as Arun. How many days more would Akhil take to complete the work?

A) 24.5 days	B) 26.6 days
C) 25 days	D) 20 days

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 26.6 days

Explanation:

Arun has completed $\frac{1}{3}$ rd of the work in 8 days

Then he can complete the total work in

$\frac{1}{3}$ ---- 8

1 ---- ?

= 24 days

But given Akhil is only 60% as efficient as Arun

Akhil = $\frac{1}{24} \times \frac{60}{100} = \frac{1}{40}$

Akhil can complete the total work in 40 days

Now, remaining 2/3rd of work can be completed in

1 ------ 40

$\frac{2}{3}$ ------ ?

= 26.66 days.

Q:

If $a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$ , then $\frac{1}{l o g_{c + a} (b)} + \frac{1}{l o g_{c - a} (b)} = ?$

A) 1	B) 2
C) 4	D) 8

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 2

Explanation:

Given $a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$

Now $\frac{1}{\log_{c + a} (b)} + \frac{1}{\log_{c - a} (b)}$

= $\log_{b} (c + a) + \log_{b} (c - a)$

= $\log_{b} (c^{2} - a^{2})$

= $2 \log_{b} (b) = 2$
