Asif is twice as good as workman as Bashir and together they finish a piece of work in 30 days. In how many days will Asif alone finish the work?
1). 90
2). 45
3). 60
4). 75
Efficiency ratio of Asif and Bashir = 2 : 1
So, Ratio of time taken by Asif and Bashir = 1 : 2
Let Asif finish the work in x days and Bashir finish the same work in 2x days
According the question,
1/x + 1/2x = 1/30
⇒ 3/2x = 1/30
⇒ x = 3/2 × 30
⇒ x = 45 days
∴ Asif will alone finish the work in 45 daysEfficiency ratio of Asif and Bashir = 2 : 1
