Answers
Answer:
akshay=60,kastik=20
Explanation:
x,x/3
x-x/3=40
x=60
x/3=20
Given,
Akshay is thrice as efficient as Kastik.
He completes a work in 40 days less than the number of days taken by Kastik.
To Find,
We are required to find out the number of days that will be taken by both of them when working together.
Solution,
The number of days that will be taken by both Akshay and Kastik when they will be working together is 15 days.
Let efficiency of Kastik be x.
Then as said in the question that Akshay is thrice as efficient as Kastik then, efficiency of Akshay will be 3x.
Days are inversely proportional to efficiency.
According to question:
⇒3x−x=40
⇒2x=40
∴x=20
Time taken by A = x days = 20 days
Time taken by B = 3x days
= 3×20
= 60 days
Time taken by both Akshay and Kastik together = (20×60)/80
= 15 days
Hence , the required answer is 15 days.
