plz ans the word problem with statements too
Answers
here's the solution
(1)
Given that ramesh can harvest a field in 16 days.
Work done by ramesh in 1-day = (1/16).
(2)
Given sohan and ramesh can harvest the field in 12 days.
Work done by sohan and ramesh in 1 - day = (1/12).
Work done by them in 8 - days = (8/12).
= 2/3.
So,
the work done by sohan in 1 day = (1/12) - (1/16)
= (16 - 12)/192
= 4/192
= 1/48.
(3)
They work together for 8 days and then ramesh leaves.
So, the amount of work done in 8 - days = 2/3.
Amount of work left(remaining work) = 1 - 2/3
= 1/3.
Now,
1/48th part of the work is done in 1 - day.
(1/3) of the part is done in:
⇒ (1/3) * 48
⇒ 16 days.
Therefore, sohan harvest the remaining field in 16 days.
Hope it helps!
