Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C. 15 days15 दिन
Explanation
Let B's one-day work = x, then A's = 2x. Together 3x = 1/10, so x = 1/30 and A's one-day work = 2/30 = 1/15. Therefore A alone needs 15 days.मान लीजिए B का एक दिन का कार्य = x, तब A का = 2x। साथ मिलकर 3x = 1/10, अतः x = 1/30 तथा A का एक दिन का कार्य = 2/30 = 1/15। इसलिए A अकेले 15 दिन लेगा।More Mathematical Reasoning and Aptitude questions
