A) 175 B) 145
C) 165 D) 135
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 175

Explanation:

Let the number of males be 'M'
Let the number of females be 'F'
From the given conditions,
(F-15)=2M.....(i)
F=5(M-45).....(ii)
By solving the equations (1) & (2) we get M = 80
Then substitute M = 80 in (1)
F = 2M + 15
F = 2 x 80 + 15
=> F = 175
Therefore, number of males = 80 and females = 175 in the party.

Q:

A can complete a work in 12 days with a working of 8 hours per day. B can complete the same work in 8 days when working 10 hours a day. If A and B work together, working 8 hours a day, the work can be completed in --- days  ?

A) 51/24 B) 87/5
C) 57/12 D) 60/11
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 60/11

Explanation:

A can complete the work in 12 days working 8 hours a day

=> Number of hours A can complete the work = 12×8 = 96 hours 

=> Work done by A in 1 hour = 1/96

 

B can complete the work in 8 days working 10 hours a day

=> Number of hours B can complete the work = 8×10 = 80 hours 

=> Work done by B in 1 hour = 1/80

 

Work done by A and B in 1 hour = 1/96 + 1/80 = 11/480

 => A and B can complete the work in 480/11 hours

 

A and B works 8 hours a day.

Hence total days to complete the work with A and B working together 

= (480/11)/ (8) = 60/11 days
