  1. Question 1

    Q1. A is twice as good as B. Together, they finish the work in 14 days. How many days will A take to finish the work alone?

    • A) 21 days
    • B) 20 days
    • C) 18 days
    • D) 16 days

    Answer: 21 days

    Explanation: If A is twice as good as B, then A's work rate is 2x and B's is x. Together, 2x + x = 3x. 1 / (3x) = 14, so 1 / (2x) = 21.
