Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
C
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Dinesh's one hour work}} \cr
& = \frac{{32}}{6} \cr
& = \frac{{16}}{3}{\text{ pages/hour}} \cr
& {\text{Rakesh's one hour work}} \cr
& = \frac{{40}}{5} \cr
& = 8{\text{ pages/hour}} \cr
& {\text{Dinesh's and Rakesh's one hour work}} \cr
& = \frac{{16}}{3} + 8 \cr
& = \frac{{40}}{3}{\text{ pages/hour}} \cr
& {\text{They will finish the work together}} \cr
& \frac{{{\text{Total work}}}}{{{\text{Efficiency}}}} \cr
& = \frac{{110}}{{\frac{{40}}{3}}} \cr
& = 8\frac{1}{4} \cr
& = {\text{8 hours, 15 minutes}} \cr} $$
