Trick - 1
  • A can do a work in x days and B can do the same work in y days. If the contract for the work is Rs.X, and both of them work together, then the share of A and B is given by
$Rs.\left( \frac{X}{x+y}\times y \right)$ and $\left( \frac{X}{x+y}\times x \right)$ respectively. 

Trick - 2
  • A,B and C can do a work in x,y and z days respectively. If doing that work together they get an amount of Rs. X, then the

Share of A = Rs.$\left( \frac{Xyz}{xy+xz+yz} \right),$ 
Share of B = Rs.$\left( \frac{Xxz}{xy+xz+yz} \right)$ and
Share of C = Rs.$\left( \frac{Xxy}{xy+xz+yz} \right)$ and ratio of their shares is given by A:B:C=yz:xz:xy 


Trick - 3
  • A person A can do a work in x days. With the help of a another person B , he can do the same work in y days. If they get Rs. X for that work, then the share of A and B is given by Rs.$\left[ \frac{Xy}{x} \right]$  and $Rs.\left[ \frac{X\left( x-y \right)}{x} \right]$  respectively 
Trick - 4
  • A, B and C contract a work for Rs.X. If together A and B are supposed to do $\frac{x}{y}$ of the work, then the share of C is given by 

$Rs.\left[ X\left( 1-\frac{x}{y} \right) \right]$ 

Trick -5
  • x1 men and y1 boys can earn Rs. X1 in d1 days, if x2 men and y2 boys can earn Rs.X2 in d2 days, then the following relationship is obtained, $\frac{men}{boys}=\left[ \frac{{{X}_{1}}{{y}_{2}}{{d}_{2}}-{{X}_{2}}{{y}_{1}}{{d}_{1}}}{{{X}_{2}}{{x}_{1}}{{d}_{1}}-{{X}_{1}}{{x}_{2}}{{d}_{2}}} \right]$ 
Trick -6
  • A and B undertake to do a work for Rs.X. A can do it alone in x days and B in y days. If with the assistance of a boy they finish the work in 'd' days, then the share that A gets is Rs.$\left( \frac{dX}{x} \right)$ , B gets is Rs.$\left( \frac{dX}{y} \right)$ and the Boy gets is Rs.$X\left[ 1-\left( \frac{x+y}{xy} \right)d \right]$ And the ratio of shares is given by A:B;Boy = dy:dx:xy - d (x+y)
