"15 * a + 15 * b = x pages in 15 mins printer a will print = 15 / 45 * x pages = 1 / 3 * x pages thus in 15 mins printer printer b will print x - 1 / 3 * x = 2 / 3 * x pages also it is given that printer b prints 3 more pages per min that printer a . in 15 mins printer b will print 45 more pages than printer a thus 2 /...
a ) 125 , b ) 135 , c ) 145 , d ) 155 , e ) 165

working together , printer a and printer b would finish the task in 15 minutes . printer a alone would finish the task in 45 minutes . how many pages does the task contain if printer b prints 3 pages a minute more than printer a ?
"cp = sp * ( 100 / ( 100 + profit % ) ) = 8400 ( 100 / 125 ) = rs . 6720 . answer : d"
a ) rs . 5725 , b ) rs . 5275 , c ) rs . 6275 , d ) rs . 6720 , e ) none of these
d
divide(8400, add(const_1, divide(25, const_100)))
divide(n0,const_100)|add(#0,const_1)|divide(n1,#1)|
