Download Solution PDFGiven:
X is twice as good a workman as Y.
They together finish a piece of work in 22 days.
Concept Used:
Work = Efficiency × Time
Calculation:
Given Efficiency of X : Efficiency of Y = 2 : 1
Efficiency of (X + Y) = 3
Total Work = 3 × 22 = 66 units
X alone can do this work in 66/2 days = 33 days.
∴ The time taken by X to complete the work is 33 days.
