Answer:
Both statements are sufficient to answer the question
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- The paint mixture has following proportions:
Total volume of paint = T
Blue: x*T / 100
Green: y*T/100
Red: z*T/100
Find:
Statement 1: x = y
Statement: z = 60
Which of the above statement is sufficient to calculate the amount of green paint used
Solution:
Statement 1:
- The amount of blue paint used is:
1 gallon = x*T / 100
- x = y,
1 gallon = y*T / 100
Hence,
Amount of green paint used is 1 gallon
- The statement is sufficient
Statement 2:
- The amount of red paint used is:
3 gallon = z*T / 100
T = 300 / z = 300 / 60 = 5 gallons
T = R + B + G
G = T - R - B
G = 5 - 3 - 1
G = 1 gallons
Hence,
Amount of green paint used is 1 gallon
- The statement is sufficient
Answer:
First statement: 10 road workers take 5 days to complete a work, working 2 hours a day.
Let us calculate how many days 2 workers will need, if they were to work at the same pace (i.e. each working 2 hours a day). The workforce is now decreased to 2 divided by 10 = 1/5 (i.e. one-fifth).
Therefore proportionately, the time will increase to 5 days divided by 1/5, (i.e. 5 / (1/5) = 25 days.
We now know that 2 workers will need 25 days to finish the work, if they work for 2 hors a day.
Now the question is what will happen if the two people work 5 hours per day, instead of 2 hours per day?
The labor they put in has increased to 5 divided by 2 = 2.5 (i.e. 2 and half times).
Consequently, the time needed to finish the work will decrease to 25 divided by 2.5 (i.e. ( 25 / 2.5 ) = 10. days.
The answer : 10 Days.
