Amal can complete a job in 10 days and Bimal can complete it in 8 days
Amal can complete a job in 10 days and Bimal can complete it in 8 days. Amal, Bimal and Kamal together complete the job in 4 days and are paid a total amount of Rs 1000 as remuneration. If this amount is shared by them in proportion to their work, then Kamal's share, in rupees, is
- 100
- 200
- 300
- 400
Answer
The team completes the job in 4 days.
Since Amol needs 10 days to complete the job, in 4 days, he does 4/10th or 40% of the work.
Since Bimal needs 8 days to complete the job, in 4 days, he does 4/8th or 50% of the work.
Therefore, Kamal did 10% of the work and for doing 10% of the work, he gets 10% of the payment, i.e. Rs. 100.
The correct option is A.
