5 man can complete the work in 7*2 = 14 days
10 women can complete a work in 14 days
1 day work of (5 men & 10 women) together = (1/14) + (1/14) =1/7
Therefore, 5 men & 10 women together can complete the work in 7 days

Suresh’s 1 day work = (1/20) × (125/100) = 5/80 = 1/16
Therefore, Suresh can complete the work in 16 days
1. 7 hour 15 minutes
2. 7 hour 30 minutes
3. 8 hour 15 minutes
4. 8 hour 30 minutes
Pages typed by Suresh in 1 hour = 40/5 = 8
Pages typed by Anil & Suresh together in 1 hour = 16/3 + 8 = 40/3
Time taken By Anil & Suresh together to type 110 pages = 110 × 3 /40 = 33/4
=> 8 ¼ hours
=> 8 hour 15 minutes
1. 5 days
2. 10 days
3. 14 days
4. 22 days
Work done by P in 4 days = 4 × (1/20) = 1/5
Remaining work = 1 – (1/5) = 4/5
Q,s 1 day work = 1/12
(P+Q) ‘s 1 day work = 1/20 + 1/12 = 8/60 = 2/15
P and Q together can complete the remaining work in = (4/5) / (2/15) = 6 days
Total days = 4 + 6 = 10
