Download Solution PDFGiven:
In a company, a piece of work can be completed in 4, 6 and 18 days alone by R, S and T, respectively.
Concept used:
Efficiency = (Total work / Total time taken)
Efficiency = work done in a single day
Calculation:
Let total work is 36 units ( Lcm of 4 . 6 and18 )
The efficiency of R is
⇒ 36 / 4 = 9 unit
Again, the Efficiency of S is,
⇒ 36 / 6 = 6 unit
Again, the Efficiency of T is,
⇒ 36 / 18 = 2 unit
Total Efficiency,
⇒ 9 + 6 + 2 = 17 unit
The number of days required, 36/17 = 2.12 days
∴ The correct option is 2
