Question: A can complete a piece of work in 36 days, B in 54 days and C in 72 days. All the three began the work together but A left 8 days before the completion of the work and B 12 days before the completion of work. Only C worked up to the end. In how many days was the work completed?
Solution:
Let the work be completed in y days. C works for y days
Therefore, A works for (y - 8) days
B works for (y - 12) days.
According to the question,
{(y-8)/36} + {(y - 12)/54} + (y/72) = 1
⇒ 6(y - 8) + 4 (y - 12) + 3y = 216
⇒ 6y - 48 + 4y - 48 + 3y = 216
⇒ 13y = 216 + 96 = 312
⇒ y = 312/13
∴ y = 24

None of these
Question: A man can do a work in 20 days and a woman in 15 days. If they work on it together for 5 days, then the fraction of the work that is left-
Solution:
Man's 1 day's work = 1/20
Woman's 1 day's work = 1/15
∴ (Man + woman)'s 1 day's work = (1/20) + (1/15) = (3 + 4)/60 = 7/60
∴ (Man + woman)'s 5 day's work = (7/60) × 5 = 7/12
Thus, Remaining work = 1 - (7/12) = (12 - 7)/12 = 5/12
∴ The fraction of the work that is left = 5/12

Question: A takes three times as much time as B or twice as much time as C to finish a piece of work. Working together, they can finish the work in 3 days. B can do the work alone in how many days?
Solution:
ধরা যাক,
A, B ও C যথাক্রমে কাজটি শেষ করতে সময় লাগে x, x/3, এবং x/2 দিন।
তারা একসাথে ৩ দিনে কাজ শেষ করে।
অর্থাৎ তাদের একদিনের কাজ হলো 1/3।
∴ A + B + C এর একদিনের কাজ = (1/x) + (3/x) + (2/x)
= (1 + 3 + 2)/x
= 6/x
এখন,
6/x = 1/3
∴ x = 18
∴ B একা কাজ শেষ করতে সময় নেবে = 18/3 = 6 দিন।

Question: Rafi alone can complete a work in 10 days and Tareq alone can complete it in 15 days. Rafi and Tareq undertook to complete the work for Tk. 7500. With the help of Salman, they finished the work in 5 days. How much should Salman be paid?
Solution:
Rafi's 1 day work = 1/10
Tareq's 1 day work = 1/15
Rafi + Tareq + Salman's 1 day work = 1/5
∴ Salman's 1 day work = 1/5 - (1/10 + 1/15)
= (6 - 3 - 2)/30
= 1/30
Salman's 5 days work = 5 × 1/30 = 1/6
Salman completed 1/6 of the total work.
∴ He should be paid 1/6 of Tk. 7500
∴ Salman’s payment = 7500 × 1/6 = Tk. 1250
