Answer: C) 4 (1/2) Explanation: Work done by P alone in one day = 1/6th of the total work done by Q alone in one day = 1/3(of that done by P in one day) = 1/3(1/6 of the total) = 1/18 of the total.    Work done by P and Q, working together in one day = 1/6 + 1/18  = 4/18 = 2/9    They would take 9/2 days = 4 (1/2) days to complete the work working together.

Answer: C) 2029 Explanation: How to find the years which have the same Calendars :   Leap year calendar repeats every 28 years. Here 28 is distributed as 6 + 11 + 11.   Rules: a) If given year is at 1st position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Givenyear+6. b) If given year is at 2nd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Givenyear+11. c) If given year is at 3rd position after Leap year then next repeated calendar year is Givenyear+11.   Now, the given year is 2018 We know that 2016 is a Leap year. 2016    2017    2018    2019  2020 Lp Y      1st     2nd      3rd     Lp Y   Here 2018 is at 2 nd position after the Leap year. According to rule b) the calendar of 2018 is repeated for the year is 2018 + 11 = 2029.
