If 5 men and 2 boys working together, can do four times as much work per hour as a man and a boy together. Find the ratio of the work done by a man and that of a boy for a given time?
A). 1:3
B). 3:1
C). 1:2
D). 2:1
2:1
5M + 2B = 4(1M + 1B)
5M + 2B = 4M + 4B
1M = 2B
The required ratio of work done by a man and a boy = 2:1
