The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, let's break it down: ### Step 1: Understand the Work Done Rohan and Rohit together can complete a job in 10 days. This means that in one day, they complete \( \frac{1}{10} \) of the job. ### Step 2: Calculate Their Combined Work Rate If we assume the total work is 30 units (for easier calculation), then: - In 10 days, they complete 30 units. - Therefore, their combined work rate is \( \frac{30 \text{ units}}{10 \text{ days}} = 3 \text{ units per day} \). ### Step 3: Calculate Rohan's Work Rate Rohan alone can complete the job in 15 days. Thus, his work rate is: - \( \frac{30 \text{ units}}{15 \text{ days}} = 2 \text{ units per day} \). ### Step 4: Find Rohit's Work Rate Now, we know the combined work rate of Rohan and Rohit is 3 units per day, and Rohan's work rate is 2 units per day. We can find Rohit's work rate by subtracting Rohan's work rate from their combined work rate: - Rohit's work rate = Combined work rate - Rohan's work rate - Rohit's work rate = \( 3 \text{ units/day} - 2 \text{ units/day} = 1 \text{ unit/day} \). ### Step 5: Calculate How Long Rohit Takes to Complete the Job Alone If Rohit can do 1 unit of work in one day, then to complete the entire job of 30 units, he will take: - Time = Total Work / Rohit's Work Rate - Time = \( \frac{30 \text{ units}}{1 \text{ unit/day}} = 30 \text{ days} \). ### Conclusion Thus, Rohit alone will take **30 days** to complete the job. ### Answer (d) 30 days ---
