A) 101 men B) 112 men
C) 102 men D) 120 men
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 102 men

Explanation:

From the above formula i.e (m1 x t1/w1) = (m2 x t2/w2)

so, [(34 x 8 x 9)/(2/5)] = [(M x 6 x 9)/(3/5)]

so, M = 136 men

 

Number of men to be added to finish the work = 136-34 = 102 men.

Q:

In a parking lot there are two types of vehicles, two wheelers and four wheelers. The total number of the vehicles in the parking lot is 200. When the number of the wheels of all the vehicles is counted it is counted to be 580. Find the total number of the four wheeler vehicles in the parking lot ?

A) 110 B) 90
C) 100 D) 180
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 90

Explanation:

Let number of 2 wheelers be 'x'
and 4 wheelers be 'y'

Given total number of vehicles = 200
i.e, x + y = 200 ....(1)

Given total number of wheels = 580
i.e, 2x + 4y = 580 ...(2)

By solving (1)&(2), we get

y = 90
=> x = 110

Therefore, number of two wheelers = 110
number of four wheelers = 90

Let the efficiencies of P, Q & R be 3x, 8x and 5x respectively

They can do work for 12 days.
