SSC Selection Post 2022 PYQ — Question 74

SSC Selection Post - Higher Secondary Level 2022 - 15 March 2022 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q74

A and B together can complete a work in 15 days. If A, B and C working together can complete the same work in 10 days, then in how many days can C alone complete the same work?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 30.

A + B finish work in 15 days

1 day work of A + B = 1/15

A + B + C finish in 10 days

1 day work of A + B + C = 1/10

C’s 1 day work = 1/10 – 1/15 = (3–2)/30 = 1/30

C alone can do the work in 30 days
