BASICS OF PROFIT AND LOSS

INTRODUCTION TO TIME AND WORK:

There will be 1 or 2 Questions from this topic in all IBPS Exams.This topic is quite easy,Since Time and Work can be solved in Partial Method in our article we use LCM method to solve the problem in order to reduce the time consumption.There are 8 Basic types in Time and Work.Let us discuss each type with an example.

Before getting into the types let us see 3 important terms associated with Time and Work,

1st Term:Work = The total work which has to be completed

Example:It is not just the work,it may be eating ice creams,completing assignment it may be any work.

If Total Work is not given question then Total Work is LCM of Given numbers

2nd Term:Time=The time taken to complete the work it may be in Hours,Minute, Days,Months and Years

3rd Term Efficiency=Total Work/Time 

Efficiency is nothing but  Per day Capacity of the individual
