Jack and Finn can finish a work together in 6 hours, while Finn alone can do it in 10 hours. What is the ratio of efficiencies of Jack and Finn?
1). 1 : 2
2). 2 : 3
3). 3 : 4
4). 3 : 5
Let the efficiencies of Jack and Finn be M and N, respectively.
We know, time to finish work is inversely proportional to efficiency.
⇒ 6 × (M + N) = 10 × N
⇒ 6M = 4N
⇒ M/N = 2/3
∴ Ratio of efficiencies is 2 : 3.
