3 men =5 women ⇒(6 men +5 women )=15 women Now, 5 women can do it in 12 days. 1 woman can do it in (12*5) days. 15 women can do it in 12*5/15days=4days.
Q 3 - A can do a bit of work in 20 days which B can do in 12 days. B worked at it for 9 days. A can complete the remaining work in:
Answer : B
Explanation
B's 9 days work = (1/12*9)= 3/4 ; remaining work = (1-3/4 )= 1/4 1/20 work is finished by A in 1 day. 1/4 works is finished by A in (20*1/4) days. =5 days

Work done by B in 23 days = (23*1/40) = 23/40 ; remaining work = (1- 23/40)= 17/40 (A+B)'s 1 day work = ( 1/45+ 1/40) = (8+9)/360 = 17/360 17/360 work is done by (A+B) in 1 day. 17/40 work is done by them in (360/17*17/40) = 9 days

(1 man+ 1 women +1 boy ) 1 day work = 1/3 Suppose the women alone can do it in x days. Then 1/6 +1/x+1/18= 1/3 ⇒4/18 +1/x = 1/3 ⇒1/x = (1/3- 2/9) = 1/9 So, 1 woman can do the work in 9 days
Q 7 - 4 men and 6 ladies complete an occupation in 8 days while 3 men and 7 ladies complete it in 10 days. 10 ladies cooperating will complete it in

Let 1 men 1 day work be x and 1 women 1 day work be y. then 4x+6 y= 1/8 ... (1) 3x+7y = 1/10 ...(11) Multiplying (1) by 3, (11) by 4 and subtracting, we get 10 y = (4/10- 3/8) = (16-15)/40 = 1/40 ⇒y = 1/400 1 women's 1 day work = 1/400 10 women 1 day work = (1/400*10) = 1/40 Hence 10 women can finish the work in 40 days
