Aasheesh can paint his doll in 20 minute...

Aasheesh can paint his doll in 20 minutes and his sister Chinki can do so in 25 minutes. They paint the doll together for five minutes. At this juncture they have a quarrel and Chinki withdraws from painting. In how many minutes will Aasheesh finish the painting of the remaining doll?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Aasheesh's `1` minute work =`1/20`
Chinki's `1` minute work
=`1/25`
Both's `1` minute work
=`1/20+1/25`
=`9/100`.
Both's `5` minutes works
=`(9/100) xx 5`
Remaining work =`1-9/20`.
=`11/20`.
Now, Aasheesh can do the whole work in =`20` minutes
∴ He will do `11/20` work in
`20 xx 11/20=11` minutes.
