Answer:
b completes the work in 1 day 16 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b complete the work in x days.
a:b :: 2:x
6:5 :: 2:x
x = (5*2)/6
x = 5/3
b completes the work in 5/3 days or 1 day 16 hours.

Efficiency Ratio – Work and Time
Ratio
If A is thrice as good a workman as B, then:
The ratio of work done by A and B = 3: 1.
The ratio of times taken by A and B to finish a work = 1 : 3. This means that if someone says A is ‘x’ times as good a workman as B, then he will take the time to B to do the same work.

Efficiency
The efficiency of work means, “How much work one person can do in one day (expressed in percentage)”. For example, a person can do a job in 2 days. In other words, we can say that he can do 50% of the work in one day. Therefore, his efficiency will be 50%.
The following two steps can be followed to better utilise the concept of efficiency. This concept involves two steps to calculate efficiency:
Step 1: Convert the work into fraction i.e. per day work.
Step 2: Express the fraction in the form of percentage by multiplying with 100. Let us see this with the help of an example.

Example 1: If a person can complete his work in 5 days. What will be his efficiency?
Answer: Number of days a person takes to complete his work = 5 days.
This means that he is doing 1/5 th of the work per day (Step one – convert into fraction).
Now let us do the second step and convert it into a percentage:
We have: 100/5 = 20%. Therefore, the person’s efficiency is 20%. Summarizing this, we can say that if a person can do his job in n days, his efficiency will be given as below:
Efficiency =(100/n) %.

Negative And Positive Efficiency
Now the efficiency can be negative as well as positive. For example, if we have a man who builds a wall in 10 days, his efficiency will be equal to (100/10)% = 10%. Suppose we also have another man who is demolishing the same wall. he can demolish the entire wall in two days. Therefore his efficiency will be – (100/2)% = – 50%.
