Fraction of cistern yet to be filled = 1-1/3 = 2/3
2/3 of cistern is filled by pipe B in 40 minutes. Time taken to fill a complete cistern is 1/ (2/3) × 40
= 60 minutes = 1 hour

Pam can complete a job in 36 days. She started the work and after 6 days, Leslie joined her. They completed the job in 12 more days. Find the number of days in which Leslie alone can complete it.

A. 28 days
B. 24 days
C. 12 days
D. 16 days
View Answer

Ans : B
Explanation: Let say PAM 1 day work = P
Hence total work = 36P
Pam worked for 6 + 12 = 18 Days
Work done by PAM = 18P
Remaining working = 36P – 18P = 18P
Work done by Leslie in 12 days = 18P
=> Work done by Leslie in 24 days = 36P
Hence Leslie alone can complete it. in 24 Days.
