    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 piece of work in 6 days. \[\therefore \] One day's work of Ram \[=\frac{1}{6}\] and 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 finished.
