  • A
    $\frac{5}{8}$
  • B
    $\frac{8}{15}$
  • C
    $\frac{7}{15}$

Two workers $A$ and $B$ working together completed a job in $5$ days. If $A$ worked twice as efficiently as he actually did and $B$ worked $\frac{1}{3}$ as efficiently as he actually did,the work would have completed in $3$ days. Find the time for $A$ to complete the job alone (in days).

Working efficiencies of $A$ and $B$ for completing a piece of work are in the ratio $3: 4$. The number of days taken by them to complete the work will be in the ratio:

Twenty women can do a work in $16$ days. Sixteen men can complete the same work in $15$ days. What is the ratio between the capacity of a man and a woman?
