SSC CGL - 12 Sep 2025 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q62

The ratio of the efficiencies of two workers, A and B, is 7 : 2. If A can complete a project in 13 days, how many days will B take to complete the same project alone?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 451245\frac{1}{2} days.

Ratio (efficiency) of A and B = 7 : 2

Ratio (time) of A and B = 2 : 7

Time required for A = 13 days

Time required for B = (13/2) × 7 = 451245\frac{1}{2} days
