Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
L.C.M. of Total Work = 60
One hours work of M = $$\frac{{60}}{{30}}$$ = 2 unit/hours
One hours work of M + S = $$\frac{{60}}{{20}}$$ = 3 unit/hours
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Efficiency of S}} \cr & = 3 - 2 \cr & = 1 \cr & {\text{Required time}} \cr & = \frac{{60}}{1} \cr & {\text{ = }}60{\text{ hours }} \cr} $$
One hours work of M = $$\frac{{60}}{{30}}$$ = 2 unit/hours
One hours work of M + S = $$\frac{{60}}{{20}}$$ = 3 unit/hours
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Efficiency of S}} \cr & = 3 - 2 \cr & = 1 \cr & {\text{Required time}} \cr & = \frac{{60}}{1} \cr & {\text{ = }}60{\text{ hours }} \cr} $$
