Question 113

At what time did Poonam finish the job ?
I. Poonam started working without a break on the job at exactly 9 a.m. and by noon she had utilised exactly half the time that it took her to finish the job.
II. Poonam took exactly 6 hours to finish the job.

Solution

I : Poonam started the work at 9 a.m.

She completed half the work in = 12 - 9 = 3 hours

Time required to complete whole work = 3 * 2 = 6 hours

=> Poonam finished the work at = 3 p.m.

Thus, I alone is sufficient.


II : Time taken to complete the job = 6 hours

But, we do not know the starting time, thus we cannot find at what time Poonam finished the work.

Thus, II alone is insufficient.
