Question

2 women and 5 men can together finish an embroidery work in 4 days, while 3 women and 6 men can finish it in 3 days. find the time taken by 1 women alone to finish the work ,and also that taken by 1 man alone​

Answer 1

Answer:

12 days

Step-by-step explanation:

2w + 5m = 3w + 6m

2w -3w = 6m-5m

1w = 1m

w : m (capacity)

1 : 1

2w + 5m = 4 days

3w + 6m = 3 days

we have set the work ,so take LCM for days

12 WORK will be the LCM

CAPACITY= WORK/TIME

• TIME = WORK / CAPACITY

TIME = 12 / 1 = 12 day will be taken by 1 woman.

for 1 man and 1 woman , both will take 12 days to complete the WORK alone
