=> x 2 − 8x − 20 = 0 10. Solution (1)
=> x 2 − 10x + 2x − 20 = 0 LCM(16,12)= 48
=> (x − 10)(x + 2) = 0 The total work to be done is 48 units.
48
=>X=10, as values of x cannot be negative. Work done by P in 1 day = = 3 unit
16
Time taken by B to complete half of the work = 48
Work done by Q in 1 day = = 4 unit
3x + 6/2 = 36/2 = 18 days 12
Work done by P + Q in 2 day = 7 unit
7. Solution (1) Work done by P + Q in 12 day = 7 × 6 = 42 unit
LCM(12,20,30)= 60 Remaining work = 48 − 42 = 6 unit
The total work to be done is 60 units. Work done by P on 13th day = 3 units
Work done by P in 1 day =
60
= 5 unit Remaining work = 6 − 3 = 3 unit
12 3
60 Time taken by Q to do 3 unit of work = day
Work done by Q in 1 day = = 3 unit 4
20 3 3
60 So; total time taken = 13 + 4 = 13(4) days
Work done by R in 1 day = 30
= 2 unit
Work done by P + R in 1 day = 7 unit
11. Solution (1)
Work done by Q+ R in 1 day = 5 units
LCM(11,20,55)= 220
So; work done in 2 days = 12 × 1 = 12 units
The total work to be done is 220 units.
So, in 10 days total work done = 12 × 5 = 220
60 unit Work done by P in 1 day = 11
= 20 units
Hence, time taken 10 days. 220
Work done by Q in 1 day = = 11 units
20
220
8. Solution (1) Work done by R in 1 day = 55
= 4 units
Let work done by A in 1 day be 2 units. Work done by P + Q in 1 day = 31 unit
So work done by B in 1 day = 1.5 × 2 = 3 units Work done by P+ R in 1 day = 24 units
So; when both work together, total work done in; So; work done in 2 days = 31 + 24 = 55 units
12 days = 12(2 + 3) = 60 units Work done in 8 days = 55 × 4 = 220 units
When, A and B work alternate days, Hence time taken = 8 days
Work done in 2 day = 5 units
SO, 12. Solution (4)
work done in 24 days = 12 × 5 = 60 units LCM(20,30,60)= 60
The total work to be done is 60 units.
9. Solution (1) Work done by X in 1 day =
60
= 3 units
LCM(8,12)= 24 20
60
The total work to be done is 24 units. Work done by Y in 1 day = 30 = 2 units
24 60
Work done by P in 1 day = = 3 unit Work done by Z in 1 day = 60 = 1 units
8
24
Work done by Q in 1 day = = 2 unit Work done by X in 2 days = 6 unit
12
Work done by P+Q in 1 day = 5 unit Work done by X +Y+Z in 1 day = 6 units
Work done by P + Q in 2 day = 5 × 2 = 10 unit So, work done in 3 days = 12 units
Remaining work = 24 − 10 = 14 units So; work done in 15 days = 12 × 5 = 60 units
When they start working together, Hence time taken = 15 days
Work done by P and Q in 4 days = 10 units
Work done by P in 5 th day = 3 units 13. Solution (2)
Remaining work = 14 − 10 − 3 = 1 units LCM(12,20)= 60
1 The total work to be done is 60 units.
So, 1 unit of work will be done by Q in 2days
60
1 1 Work done by P+Q in 1 day = = 5 units
So; total time taken = 2 + 4 + 1 +2 = 7(2) 12

Let both of them work together for x days.
14. Solution (1) As per question;
Let efficiency of 1 man be 1 unit. 10 + x(3 + 2) = 30
Total work to be done = 7 × 12 = 84 units => 5x = 20
Work done in 5 days by 7 men = 7 × 7 = => x = 4 days
49 units Thus, total time taken = 5 + 4 = 9 days
Remaining work = 84 − 49 = 35 units
After 2 men left, 18. Solution (3)

Then efficiency of A = 3 unit (2) × 0.4 = 0.2 units, in 6 days.
So, Therefore, the remaining work for C is 0.4 −
Work done by A and B in 10 days = 10(3 + 0.2 = 0.2 units.
