    Ram can do a piece of work in 6 days and Shyam can finish the same work in 12 days. How much work will be finished, if both work together for 2 days?

    A) One-fourth of the work

    B)  One-third of the work

    C)  Half of the work   

    D)  Whole of the work

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Since, Ram can do a piece of work in 6 days. \[\therefore \]One day's work of Ram \[=\frac{1}{6}\] Shyam can finish the same work in 12 days. \[\therefore \]One day's work of Shyam\[=\frac{1}{12}\] Hence, one day's work together. Ram and Shyam \[=\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{12}=\frac{2+1}{12}=\frac{3}{12}=\frac{1}{4}\] \[\therefore \]Two day's work together\[=\frac{1}{2}\] Thus, if they work together for 2 days, then half of the work will be complete.
