Solutions
Given:
Amit, Bipin and Kaithi can complete a piece of work in 20, 30 and 60 days
Concept used:
Total work = Efficiency of the workers × time taken by them
Calculation:
LCM of 20, 30, and 60 is 60 i.e total work
Efficiency of Amit = 60/20 = 3 units/day
Efficiency of Bipin = 60/30 = 2 units/day
Efficiency of Kaithi = 60/60 = 1 units/day
Now,
1st two days only Amit works
So, amount of work done = 6 units
3rd day Bipin and Kaithi join
So, total work on 3rd day = 3 + 2 + 1
⇒ 6 units
So,
In 3 days total 12 units of work is completed
So, effective efficiency = 12/3 = 4 units/day
Time = 60/4 = 15 days
∴ Required answer is 15 days.
