According to the calculation, the ratio of Kim's wages to David's wages is 2:3,
which means that for every 2 units of wages that Kim receives,
David receives 3 units of wages.
The calculation also shows that the ratio of Kim's work rate to David's work rate is 2:3,
with Kim able to complete 1/3 of the work in a day and David able to complete 1/2 of the work in a day.
Using this information,
we can determine that Kim's share of the total payment of Rs. 150 is Rs. 60,
which is equal to 2/5 of the total payment
The work rate of A is 1/20 of the task per day,
while the work rate of B and C together is 1/10 of the task per day.
When A is assisted by B and C every third day,
they can complete 1/5 of the task in 3 days.
Therefore, it will take A a total of 15 days to complete the task on their own.
If the work rate of A and B together is 1/10 of the task per day,
the work rate of C is 1/50 of the task per day,
and the combined work rate of A, B, and C is 1/6 of the task per day,
then the work rate of A is equal to the combined work rate of B and C.
Therefore, the work rate of B is (1/6 - 1/50) of the task per day,
or 1/25 of the task per day.
This means that B can complete the task in 25 days on their own
If the work rate of one man is represented by 'x' and the work rate of one woman is represented by 'y',
the work rates of 4 men and 6 women can be represented as
4x + 6y = 1/8.
Similarly,
the work rates of 3 men and 7 women can be represented as
3x + 7y = 1/10.
Solving these equations,
we find that the work rate of one woman is 1/400 of the task per day.
Therefore, 10 women can complete the task in 40 days
The work rate of one woman is 1/70 of the task per day,
and the work rate of one child is 1/140 of the task per day.
The combined work rate of 5 women and 10 children is (5/70 + 10/140) of the task per day,
which is equal to 1/14 of the task per day.
Therefore, it will take 5 women and 10 children a total of 7 days to complete the task
If the ratio of the time it takes Sakshi and Tanya to complete the same task is 5:4,
and it takes Sakshi 20 days to complete the task,
then it will take Tanya 16 days to complete the task.
This is because Tanya is 25% more efficient than Sakshi,
and the ratio of their work rates can be expressed as 5:4,
with Tanya's work rate being 4/5 of Sakshi's work rate.
A and B together can complete the work in 4 days,
so the amount of work they complete in 1 day is (1/4) of the total work.
A alone can complete the work in 12 days, so the amount of work he completes in 1 day is (1/12) of the total work.
The amount of work B completes in 1 day is the total amount of work completed by A and B in 1 day minus the amount of work A completes in 1 day.
This is (1/4) - (1/12) = (1/6) of the total work.
Since B completes (1/6) of the total work in 1 day, it will take him 6 days to complete the entire work.
The work can be completed by A and B in 18 days, so the amount of work they complete in 1 day is (1/18) of the total work.
The work can be completed by B and C in 24 days, so the amount of work they complete in 1 day is (1/24) of the total work.
The work can be completed by A and C in 36 days, so the amount of work they complete in 1 day is (1/36) of the total work.
The amount of work A, B, and C complete in 1 day is the sum of the work completed by each pair in 1 day. This is (1/18) + (1/24) + (1/36) = 9/72 = 1/8 of the total work.
Since A, B, and C complete (1/16) of the total work in 1 day, it will take them 16 days to complete the entire work.
A is twice as good a workman as B, so the ratio of A's work to B's work is 2 : 1. A and B can finish the work in 18 days, so the amount of work they complete in 1 day is (1/18) of the total work. We can divide the amount of work they complete in 1 day in the ratio 2 : 1, with A completing 2/3 and B completing 1/3. Therefore, A's 1 day's work is (1/18) * (2/3) = 1/27 of the total work. Since A completes (1/27) of the total work in 1 day, it will take him 27 days to complete the entire work.
A can complete the work in 80 days, so the amount of work he completes in 1 day is (1/80) of the total work. A works on the job for 10 days, so he completes a total of (1/80) * 10 = 1/8 of the total work. The remaining work is 1 - 1/8 = 7/8 of the total work. B alone finishes the remaining work in 42 days, so the amount of work he completes in 1 day is (7/8) / 42 = 1/48 of the total work. When A and B work together, their combined 1 day's work is (1/80) + (1/48) = 8/240 = 1/30 of the total work. Since they complete (1/30) of the total work in 1 day, it will take them 30 days to complete the entire work.
