P and Q together can do a job in 6 days. Q and R can finish the same job in 60 over 7 days. P started the work and worked for 3 days. Q and R continued for 6 days. Then the difference of days in which R and P can complete the job is

  • 10

  • 8

(P + Q)'s 1 day's work = 1 over 6
(Q + R)'s 1 day's work = 7 over 60
Let P alone takes x days to finish the work
According to the question,
open parentheses fraction numerator straight P space does over denominator straight P space can space space do end fraction space plus space fraction numerator left parenthesis straight Q space plus space straight R right parenthesis does over denominator left parenthesis straight Q plus straight R right parenthesis space can space do end fraction space equals space 1 close parentheses
3 over straight x plus fraction numerator 6 cross times 7 over denominator 60 end fraction space equals space 1
rightwards double arrow space space 3 over straight x space equals space 1 minus 7 over 10 space equals space 3 over 10
rightwards double arrow space space straight x space equals space 10 space days
∴   Q's 1 day's work
    equals space 1 over 6 minus 1 over 10 space equals space fraction numerator 5 minus 3 over denominator 30 end fraction space equals space 1 over 15
R's 1 day's work
    equals space 7 over 60 minus 1 over 15 space equals fraction numerator 7 minus 4 over denominator 60 end fraction space equals space 1 over 20
∴  Time taken by R = 20 days
∴  Required no of days  = 20 - 10 = 10 days
