Rajesh, in his printing press, got an order to print some books, out of which be completed of the order in 34 days. In how many days did he completed the entire order of printings?
Correct Answer :
54
Solution :
The correct answer is 54.
Let the total printing order be represented as 1 unit (or the entire order).
We are given that Rajesh completes of the order in 34 days.
To find the time taken to complete the entire order (which is 1 unit), we can use the unitary method.
Let be the total number of days required to complete the entire order.
The rate of work done per day is constant, so we can set up the proportion:
Therefore, we write:
Now, we solve for by cross-multiplying:
We can simplify this by dividing 34 by 17:
Substituting this back into the equation gives:
Thus, Rajesh will complete the entire order of printings in 54 days.
