Discussion :: Time and Work
- P alone can complete a piece of work in 6 days. Work done by Q alone in one day is equal to one-third of the work done by P alone in one day. In how many days can the work be completed if P and Q work together?
Answer : Option B
Explanation :
Work done by P alone in one day = 1/6th of the total work done by Q alone in one day = 1/3(of that done by P in one day) = 1/3(1/6 of the total) = 1/18 of the total.
Work done by P and Q, working together in one day = 1/6 + 1/18 = 4/18 = 2/9 of the total
