If A can complete a task in 10 days and B is 25% more efficient than A, how long (in days) will it take them to complete 60% of the task when they work together?
Given:
Time taken by A = 10 days
B is 25% more efficient than A
Target work = 60%
Formula Used:
Work = Efficiency × Time
Solution:
Let the efficiency of A be 100%
Efficiency of B = 100% + 25% = 125%
Ratio of efficiency of A and B = 100 : 125 = 4 : 5
Total Work = 4 × 10 = 40
Target Work = 40 × = 24
Combined efficiency of A and B = 4 + 5 = 9
Time required =
Final Answer
So the correct answer is (c)
