Zee and Gee can complete a task together in 24 days. If the efficiencies of Zee and Gee are in the ratio 3 : 8, respectively, then in how many days can Gee complete the task alone?
If the efficiencies of Zee and Gee are in the ratio 3 : 8.
Let's assume the efficiencies of Zee and Gee is '3y' and '8y' respectively.
Zee and Gee can complete a task together in 24 days.
Total work = $$24\times(3y+8y)$$
= $$24\times11y$$
= 264y
Time taken by Gee alone to complete the task = $$\frac{264y}{8y}$$
= 33 days
