Search

In worksheet on time and work the questions will


be mainly given to calculate the time required to
complete the piece of work, to calculate the work
done in a given period of time and also the
questions will be from pipes and cistern.

1. A can do a piece of work in 24 days while B can


do it in 30 days. In how many days can they
complete it, if they work together?

2. A can do a piece of work in 15 hours while B


can do it in 12 hours. How long will both take to
do it, working together?

3. A and B, working together can finish a piece of


work in 6 days, while A alone can do it in 9 days.
How much time will B alone take to finish it?

4. Two motor mechanics, Ron and Sam, working


together can overhaul a scooter in 6 hours. Ron
alone can do the job in 15 hours. In how many
hours, can Sam alone do it?

5. A, B and C can do a piece of work in 8 days,


12 days and 15 days respectively. How long
will they take to finish it if they work together?

6. A can do a piece of work in 6 hours while B


alone can do it in 16 hours. If A, B and C
working together can finish it in 8 hours, in
how many hours can C alone finish the work?

7. A, B and C working together can finish a


piece of work in 8 hours. A alone can do it in
20 hours and B alone can do it in 24 hours. In
how many hours will C alone do the same
work?

8. A and B can finish a piece of work in 6 days


and 4 days respectively. A started the work
and worked at it for 2 days. He was then joined
by B. Find the total time taken to finish the
work.

9. A can do a piece of work in 14 days while B


can do it in 21 days. They began together and
worked at it for 7 days. Then, A was not well
and B had to complete the work. In how many
days was the work completed?

10. A, B and C can do a piece of work in 15, 12


and 20 days respectively. They started the
work together, but C left after 2 days. In how
many days will the remaining work be
completed by A and B?

11. A and B can do a piece of work in 18 days;


B and C can do it in 24 days while C and A can
finish it in 36 days. In how many days can A,
B, C finish it, if they all work together?

12. A and B can do a piece of work in 12 days,


B and C in 15 days, and C and A in 20 days.
How much time will A alone take to finish the
job?

13. Pipes A and B can fill an empty tank in 10


hours and 15 hours respectively. If both are
opened together in the empty tank, how much
time will they take to fill it completely?

14. Pipe A can fill an empty tank in 5 hours


while pipe B can empty the full tank in 6 hours.
If both are opened at the same time in the
empty tank, how much time will they take to
fill it up completely?

15. Three taps A, B and C can fill an overhead


tank in 6 hours, 8 hours and 12 hours
respectively. How long would the three taps
take to fill the empty tank, if all of them are
opened together?

16. A cistern has two inlets A and B which can


fill it in 12 minutes and 15 minutes
respectively. An outlet C can empty the full
cistern in 10 minutes. If all the three pipes are
opened together in the empty tank, how much
time will they take to fill the tank completely?

17. A pipe can fill a cistern in 9 hours. Due to a


leak in its bottom, the cistern fills up in 10
hours. If the cistern is full, in how much time
will it be emptied by the leak?

Hint. Work done by the leak in 1 hour = (¹/₉ –


¹/₁₀) = ¹/₉₀

18. Pipe A can fill a cistern in 6 hours and pipe B


can fill it in 8 hours. Both the pipes are opened
and after two hours, pipe A is cl?sed. How much
time will B take to fill the remaining part of the
tank?

Hint. Work done by (A + B) in 1 hour = (¹/₆ + ¹/


₈) = ⁷/₂₄

Work done by both in 2 hours = (⁷/₂₄ × 2) = ⁷/₁₂

Remaining part = (1 - ⁷/₁₂) = ⁵/₁₂

Now, ¹/₈ part is filled by B in 1 hour. Find how


much time B will take to fill ⁵/₁₂ part.

Below the worksheet on time and


work we will find the answers of
the given question.

1. 13¹/₃ days.

2. 6 hours 40 minutes.

3. 18 days.
