Q:

A is 3 times faster than B. If A can finish a work 32 days less than that of B, find the number of days need to finish the work if both are working together?

A) 12 days B) 24 days
C) 32 days D) 16 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 12 days

Explanation:

It is given that efficiency ratio =3:1

so time ratio will be 1:3 (since work is same)

 

Also given that time diff = 32 days. ratio difference = 3-1 =2 

2 ratio = 32 days

1 ratio = 16 days.

So A will alone finish it in 16 days and B will finish it in 16*3 = 48 days.

 

Total work = LCM of 16 and 48 = 48.

Total time = Total work/Total efficiency 

ie; 48/4= 12 days.

Q:

Ten years ago, Kumar was thrice as old as Sailesh was but 10 years hence, he will be only twice as old. Find Kumar’s present age ?

A) 50 years B) 70 years
C) 60 years D) 40 years
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 70 years

Explanation:

Let Kumar’s present age be "x" years and Sailesh’s present age be "y" years.
Then, according to the first condition,


x - 10 = 3(y - 10) => x - 3y = - 20 ........(1)

Now, Kumar’s age after 10 years = (x + 10) years.

Sailesh’s age after 10 years = (y + 10) years.

(x + 10) = 2 (y + 10)  => x - 2y = 10 ......(2)

 

Solving (1) and (2),

we get x = 70 and y = 30

Kumar’s present age = 70 years    and  Sailesh’s present age = 30 years.
