45*10^5 ?
total no.s = 9*10^6
half will have odd sum of digits

Q 6

@Logrhythm is there any other way of solution?

@Logrhythm also solve #18193 question
@saurav205
bhai @vbhvgupta ka Q6 solve karke bata..

P.s mera answer match nai kar raha
@ishu1991 Please Explain How??
time work efficiency
A 27 1%
b 9 3%
c 3 9%
d 1 27%

work efficiency is reciprocl of time taken
A+B+C=13% OF work
A+B+D=31% of work

so A+B+D=13 days
A+B+C= 31 days
@ishu1991 Thanks :)
A task is assigned to a group of 11 men, not all of whom have the same capacity to work. Every day exactly 2 men out of the group work on the task, with no pair of men working together twice. Even after all the possible pairs have worked once, all the men together had to work for exactly one day more to finish the task. What is the number of days that will be required for all the men working together to finish the job?(a) 11 (b) 21 (c) 33 (d) none of the foregoing

answer is 11

answer is 11
plz paste the solution..
@ishu1991

Shld be 11..

Let the rate of 11 different person be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 n 11 units/day..

Thus, Total units of work that each pair of workers collectively wrk = 10*66 units..

Now, Total Units of work = 10*66 + 66 = 66*11 units..

Thus, Number of days requird = 66*11/66 = 11..
