Aman requires half the time required by Faizan to complete a work and 1/3 time as much as Ankit. Together all three can compete the work in 1 day. In how much time can Ankit and Faizan together complete the work
Aman requires half the time required by Faizan to complete a work and 1/3 time as much as Ankit. Together all three can compete the work in 1 day. In how much time can Ankit and Faizan together complete the work Correct Answer 11/5
Given
If Faizan takes = 2 days
So, Aman will take = 1 day
And, Ankit will take = 3 days
They altogether complete the work in 1 day
Concept used
Work = time × efficiency
Time ∝ 1/ efficiency
Calculation
The ratio of their time
Aman : Faizan : Ankit = 1 : 2 : 3
So, the Ratio of their efficiency = 6 : 3 : 2
Their total efficiency of 1 day = 11 units
They altogether complete the work in = 1 day
So, total work = 11 × 1 = 11 units
Faizan and Ankit together complete the work in = 11 / 5 days
∴ Faizan and Ankit together take 11/5 days to complete the work.
