Quantity II: If Anay starts the work and works for 3 days, after that Meera join him, in how many days will the whole work be completed?

  1. Quantity : I > Quantity : II

  2. Quantity : I ≥ Quantity : II

  3. Quantity : I < Quantity : II

  4. Quantity : II ≥ Quantity : I

  5. Quantity I = Quantity II or relation can't be established

C Correct answer
Explanation

Anay completes half work in 18 days, so full work in 36 days (rate = 1/36). Meera's rate = 1/30. Combined rate = 1/36 + 1/30 = 11/180, so together they complete work in 180/11 ≈ 16.36 days. Quantity II: Anay works 3 days (3/36 = 1/12 work done), remaining 11/12 by both at 11/180 rate = 15 days. Total = 3 + 15 = 18 days. Since 16.36 < 18, Quantity I < Quantity II.
