Your Answer

Ganga work is 8 hrs, while saraswathi is 12hrs. Avg of 8 & 12 is 24. So let total work be 24units. Ganga can do 3 units/hr ; Saras can do 2units/hr. On combination it is 5units. Since they work alternatively. So it's 5units/2hours. Which give 20units in 10hours. (ie. 5pm). Remaining 4units , where 1st 3 units by Ganga which is 1 Hr. ( ie. now 6pm) and 1 unit by Sara which is 30mins. So Ans. 6pm30mins
