P is 25% less efficient than Q. In what ratio should their wages be shared?
-
A.
4:3
-
B.
3:2
-
C.
3:4
-
D.
3:5
Correct Answer:
C. 3:4
Explanation:
Efficiency and wages are inversely related to the time taken to complete a task but directly related to the rate of work. Since P is 25% less efficient than Q, if we assume Q's efficiency is 100, then P's efficiency is 75. The ratio of their work efficiencies is 75:100, which simplifies to 3:4. Because wages are distributed based on the ratio of efficiency or work done, the earnings should be shared in the ratio of 3:4.
