A can do a work in 6 days and B can do the same in 4 days. Both of them finish the work together and get Rs. 300. What is the share of A?1. Rs. 1202. Rs. 1503. Rs. 1804. Rs. 200

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : Rs. 120

Given 

Time taken to complete a work  by A = 6 days 

Time taken to complete a work by B = 4 days

Both of them finish the work together and get = 300 Rs 

Formula used 

Efficiency = Work/Time 

Calculation 

Let the LCM of 6 and 4 = 12 

Then total work = 12 

The efficiency of A in 1 day = 12/6 = 2

The efficiency of B in 1 day = 12/4 = 3 

The efficiency of A and B in 1 day  = 2 + 3 = 5 

Then,  A gets  Rs. = (Total amount/The efficiency of A and B in 1 day) × efficiency of A

⇒ (300/5) × 2 = 120

∴ The share of A is 120 Rs.
