TIME AND WORK

1. Time and Work formula and facts

1. If A can do a piece of work in n days, then A's 1 day's work =


1/n
2. If A's 1 day's work =1/n, then A can finish the work in n days
3. If A is thrice as good a workman as B, then:
Ratio of work done by A and B = 3 : 1.
Ratio of times taken by A and B to finish a work = 1 : 3
Note: If you feel third formula a bit confusion, then please check
