Each question consists of a statement and/or a question followed by two statements I and II. Identify an option which provides sufficient data to answer the given question. Mark your answer as
A. if the data in statement I is sufficient and II is not required;
B. if the data in statement II is sufficient and I is not required;
C. if the data in both statements is necessary;
D. if the data in both statements is not sufficient to answer the question.
B alone can complete a work in 12 days. How many days will A, B and C together takes to complete the work?
I. A and B together can complete the work in 3 days.
II. B and C together can complete the work in 6 days.
Assume total work to be done = 12 units. ThenĀ $$\eta_B$$ = 1 unit/day
Using only statement I, we getĀ $$\eta_A$$+Ā $$\eta_B$$ = 12/3 = 4unit/day.Ā
ThusĀ onlyĀ $$\eta_A$$ can be calculated.
Similarly using statement II, we can calculateĀ $$\eta_C$$ only.
Using both the statement together will give $$\eta_A$$ as well asĀ $$\eta_C$$Ā and thus we will get the required answer. Hence option C is correct
