Q2
1) Mr. X has to build a wall 1000 m long in 50 days. He employs 56 men but at the end of 27 days finds that only 448 m is built. How many more men must be employed so that work may be finished in time ?
2) Johny is 33% more efficient than tony and his hourly wages are 20 % more. If johny is paid 480 , how much tony will receive for the same work ?

@pyashraj said:@nramachandranShould be 9..1/x + 1/y = 1/2..Here, x=3, y = 6.. Mostly it seems 8 to be the answer[x=4, y=4]...
@nramachandran said:(1/x) + (1/y) = 1/2 ; x and y are positive integers, What is the maximum value of x+y? Please post the approach

@nramachandran said:448/1000-----------56*27 =552/1000------------(56+x)*23Solving x=25, 25 more men are required
@somnathbhatta said:Suppose, the seed of any positive integer n is defined as follows:seed(n) = n, if n = seed(s(n)), otherwise,where s(n) indicates the sum of digits of n. For example,seed(7) = 7, seed(248) = seed(2 + 4 + 8) = seed(14) = seed(1 + 4) = seed(5) = 5 etc.How many positive integers n, such that n 1)39 2)72 3)81 4)108 5)55 please share the approach too

@dhwanibhatt6 said:If i go by the equation you provided, i am getting the following:(56+x)= 69*27/28.I don't know how yu getting 25 , though your answer is correct.
