Correct Answer: 1000
Correct Answer: 40
Correct Answer: 7 days
Explanation:
1 boy's 1 day work = 1/70
1 girl's 1 day work = 1/140
(5 boys + 10 girls)'s 1 day work = (5/70 + 10/140) = (1/14 + 1/14) = 1/7
5 boys and 10 girls will complete the work in 7 days.
Correct Answer: 14 days
Explanation:
Let A worked for x days.
x/21 + 4/28 = 1 => x = 18
A worked for 18 days. So, A can complete the remaining work in 18 - 4 = 14 days.
Correct Answer: 45 metric tonnes
Explanation:
2 engines of former type for one hour consumes (2 x 24)/(6 x8) = 1 metric ton
i.e. 3 engines of latter type consumes 1 ton for one hour
Hence 9 engines consumes 3 tons for one hour
For 15 hours it is 15 x 3 = 45 metric tonnes.
