Answer : 1. "Rs. 320, Rs. 240 and Rs. 240"
Explanation :

Let's break down the problem step by step:

  1. A can complete the work in 15 days, so his daily work rate is 1/15 of the work per day.
  2. B can complete the work in 20 days, so his daily work rate is 1/20 of the work per day.
  3. A and B work together for 6 days. In these 6 days, their combined work rate is (1/15 + 1/20) = (4/60 + 3/60) = 7/60 of the work per day.
  4. In 6 days, they complete (6 * 7/60) = 42/60 of the work, which simplifies to 7/10 of the work.

Now, let C complete the remaining 3/10 of the work in 6 days. We can calculate C's daily work rate:

C's daily work rate = Work done by C in 6 days / 6 C's daily work rate = (3/10) / 6 C's daily work rate = 1/20 of the work per day.

Now, let's calculate the total amount earned by each worker:

  1. A's share: A worked for 6 days at a rate of 1/15 of the work per day, so he completed (6 * 1/15) = 2/5 of the work. A's share of the money is (2/5) * Rs 800 = Rs 320.

  2. B's share: B worked for 6 days at a rate of 1/20 of the work per day, so he completed (6 * 1/20) = 3/10 of the work. B's share of the money is (3/10) * Rs 800 = Rs 240.

  3. C's share: C worked for 6 days at a rate of 1/20 of the work per day, so he completed (6 * 1/20) = 3/10 of the work. C's share of the money is (3/10) * Rs 800 = Rs 240.

Now, to check if the total amount is correct, you can add up their individual shares:

Rs 320 (A) + Rs 240 (B) + Rs 240 (C) = Rs 800

So, they should divide the money as follows:

  • A gets Rs 320.
  • B gets Rs 240.
  • C gets Rs 240.

Q:

The sum of weights of A and B is 80 kg. 50% of A's weight is times the weight of B. Find the difference between their weights.

Answer : 1. "20 kg"
Explanation :

Let's denote the weight of A as 𝑥x kg and the weight of B as 𝑦y kg.

Given:

  1. 𝑥+𝑦=80x+y=80 (Sum of weights of A and B is 80 kg)
  2. 0.5𝑥=56𝑦0.5x=65y (50% of A's weight is 5665 times the weight of B)

We can solve these two equations to find the values of 𝑥x and 𝑦y, and then calculate the difference between their weights.

From equation 2: 0.5𝑥=56𝑦0.5x=65y Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction: 𝑥=56𝑦×2x=65y×2 𝑥=106𝑦x=610y 𝑥=53𝑦x=35y

Now substitute this expression for 𝑥x into equation 1: 53𝑦+𝑦=8035y+y=80 83𝑦=8038y=80 Multiply both sides by 3883: 𝑦=80×38y=80×83 𝑦=30y=30

Now that we have found the weight of B, we can find the weight of A using equation 1: 𝑥+30=80x+30=80 𝑥=80−30x=80−30 𝑥=50x=50

So, the weight of A is 50 kg and the weight of B is 30 kg.

Now, let's find the difference between their weights: Difference=Weight of A−Weight of BDifference=Weight of A−Weight of B Difference=50−30Difference=50−30 Difference=20Difference=20

Therefore, the difference between their weights is 20 kg.
