Answer : 2. "100"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 100 Explanation: Let the Efficiency of pavan be E(P) Let the Efficiency of sravan be E(S) Here Work W = LCM(25,20) = 100 Now, E(P+2S) = 100/25 = 4 ....(1) E(2P+S) = 100/20 = 5 ....(2) Hence, from (1) & (2) we get E(S) = 1 => Number of days Savan alone work to complete the work = 100/1 = 100 days.
