How do you solve problems with time and work?
How do you solve problems with time and work?
Important Time and Work Formula
- Work Done = Time Taken × Rate of Work.
- Rate of Work = 1 / Time Taken.
- Time Taken = 1 / Rate of Work.
- If a piece of work is done in x number of days, then the work done in one day = 1/x.
- Total Wok Done = Number of Days × Efficiency.
- Efficiency and Time are inversely proportional to each other.
How do you solve problems at work?
Here are the basic steps involved in problem-solving:
- Define the problem. Analyze the situation carefully to learn more about the problem.
- Identify alternative solutions.
- Evaluate solutions.
- Select a solution.
- Implement the chosen solution.
- Monitor progress and make adjustments.
How do you solve hours worked?
How to calculate hours worked
- Determine the start and the end time.
- Convert the time to military time (24 hours)
- Transform the minutes in decimals.
- Subtract the start time from the end time.
- Subtract the unpaid time taken for breaks.
Can do a work in 12 days and B can do the same work in 18 days together they will take how much time?
Time taken by A = 12 days, Time taken by B = 18 days. CONCEPT: As A left the work 3 days before so, B has to do the left work alone for 3 days.
What is the ratio between work and time?
The ratio of times taken by A and B to finish a work = 1 : 3. This means that if someone says A is ‘x’ times as good a workman as B, then he will take the time to B to do the same work.
What is a work problem?
Work Problems are word problems that involve different people doing work together but at different rates. If the people were working at the same rate then we can use the Inversely Proportional Method instead.
Can do any one job in 12 days and B is 60% more work friendly than a tell me in how many days will that work be completed?
Since B is 60% more efficient than A, the fraction of the total job completed on one day by B will be 60% more than that of A. Hence B finishes the job in 7.5 days. Hence option [b] is correct.
Can do a piece of work in 20 days?
A can do a piece of work in 20 days and B can do the same piece of work in 30 days. Find that in how many days both can do the work? So, the work will be completed in 12 days if they work together. Hence option [B] is correct answer.
What is time and work problems?
Q 1 – A can do a bit of work in 8 days, which B alone can do in 10 days in how long . In how long both cooperating can do it? A’s 1 day work= 1/8, B`s 1 day work = 1/10 ∴ (A+B) 1 day work = (1/8+1/10) = 9/40 Both cooperating can complete it in 40/9 days.
