Pinki, Chinki and Reema started a work and Reema left after 4 days when 46% of the work is completed and then work got completed in 9 more days. In how many days can Reema alone complete the work?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 1821118\frac 2 {11}.

Combined work in 4 days = 46%

So (P + C + R) daily = 46 ÷ 4 = 11.5% per day

Remaining 54% done by P + C in 9 days 

(P + C) daily = 54 ÷ 9 = 6% per day

R daily = 11.5 − 6 = 5.5% per day

Time for R alone = 100 ÷ 5.5 = 200/11 = 182112\over11days
