Sharman is 20 percent less efficient than Vivek. If Vivek can make a helmet alone in 20 days, then in how many days can Sharman alone make the same helmet?1. 23 days2. 25 days3. 30 days4. 27 days

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 25 days

Given:

Sharman is 20 percent less efficient than Vivek

Vivek can make a helmet alone in 20 days

Formula used:

The efficiency of a person is the inverse of the time taken

Calculation:

According to the question,

Per day efficiency of Vivek for making the helmet = 1/20

⇒ Sharman's per day efficiency for making the helmet = (80/100) × (1/20) = 0.8 × (1/20) = 1/25

∴ Sharman can make the helmet in 25 days.
