Answer : 2. "12.5%"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 12.5% Explanation: Let p% of a day is 3 hrs. We know that a day has 24 hrs. => p x 24/100 = 3 => p = 300/24 => p = 12.5% Hence, 3 hrs is 12.5% of a day.
Q: A, B and C can do a piece of work in 72, 48 and 36 days respectively. For first p/2 days, A & B work together and for next ((p+6))/3days all three worked together. Remaining 125/3% of work is completed by D in 10 days. If C & D worked together for p day then, what portion of work will be remained? 1810 05b5cc669e4d2b4197774bf4d

Answer : 2. "1/6"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 1/6 Explanation: Total work is given by L.C.M of 72, 48, 36 Total work = 144 units Efficieny of A = 144/72 = 2 units/day Efficieny of B = 144/48 = 3 units/day Efficieny of C = 144/36 = 4 units/day According to the given data, 2 x p/2 + 3 x p/2 + 2 x (p+6)/3 + 3 x (p+6)/3 + 4 x (p+6)/3 = 144 x (100 - 125/3) x 1/100 3p + 4.5p + 2p + 3p + 4p = 84 x 3 - 54 p = 198/16.5 p = 12 days. Now, efficency of D = (144 x 125/3 x 1/100)/10 = 6 unit/day (C+D) in p days = (4 + 6) x 12 = 120 unit Remained part of work = (144-120)/144 = 1/6.
