Identical Work Rates - Incredible Trick

[@tommyshelby2020]

Dear tested tutor, MASSIVE SHOUTOUT AND THANKYOU! Gave my GRE today(2nd attempt) 169Q, 158V, 327 Overall Previously got 314 (148V, 166Q) As a non-native speaker, i found it really tough to do verbal section before, LITERALLY all the types of questions seemed HARD. My honest comment : You made it all better, I cannot say I became a pro, it still seems really difficult, but your take on the questions helped a LOTTTTTTTTT! THANKS AGAIN, PLEASE CONTINUE WHAT YOU'RE DOING I'll say it again, MOST UNDERRATED CHANNEL FOR GRE, guys this man needs to reach to every student possible, cause they deserve it and more IMPORTANTLY, HE DESERVES IT!

Hey Philip. Had a doubt in Question 3. The question specifies that they are working simultaneously and independently which infers that they can work on one parcel at a time and cannot interfere in other's work. Thinking logically, at time 0s they start labelling. The target is to label 3 parcels. Denisa completes at 10s and starts working on the next as she's faster in labeling than dhwani. So her labeling will end at 20s. By that time dhwani would completed labeling her first parcel in 12s. So the least time to complete labeling of 3 parcels should be 20s. What are your thoughts on this approach?

[@iowacla55]

I agree. It's a qualitatively different task from painting walls. He should have used painting or mowing instead if he wanted to illustrate the usual work-rate method.

[@stormchaser9738]

Ran into the same hangup today while I worked on it.

This is phenomenal and I finally understand this concept. Thank you SO much. All your videos are ABSOLUTE GOLD :D.

Thank you so much sir. I just gave my GRE Exam and got as much score as I needed. Solely relied on your videos and mock tests for preparation. The videos helped me lot. You are doing great work.

Thank you Aishwarya and well done! Great job

[@askhaddossov1635]

Great pleasure to find that video during my practice for GMAT. You are the best tutor as I have ever met. By watching your videos I realized that to be a teacher that could teach in the correct way is the most Nobel job in the world. Looking forward for your new videos or even super-platform for teaching GMAT/GRE and maybe IELTS and TOEFL. Bless you God.

You got me on the 3rd example 😂🙈Thank you for the video Phillip 👏

Eager to sit for GRE on January. Till I follow you from last year.

[@alicewilson9958]

This was great. You can also use the shortcut formula WORK= no.of people performing the work x rate x time. Rate is constant so find the rate and substitute in the new equation with given work and number of people to find the time.

[@neelamarora7651]

god bless you man i was struggling with these machine problems a lot, no more.

Hey, Philip. I took my GRE today and scored 312 (which should get me into all my target colleges). Prepared for the last 3 weeks by only watching your videos on quants and verbal. I owe this completely to you. Thank you soo much, and keep going with the great content :))

312 is like 150 and 162. That's impressive!

I got the 2nd and last question right. Informative videos; tricky concept explained in simplest way. Thank you.

[@VaradNair]

A perfect warm up before final mock test :D . Thanks Philip for your seamless efforts and amazing techniques. Alternative Way if you want to avoid fractions ;) for Q3( can be used ubiquitously) :-> Useful formula=> Work Done = Time x Efficiency LCM of 12 and 10 ------ 120 Now Dhwani takes 12 seconds , Efficiency of Dhwani = 120/12=10 Denisa takes 10 seconds , Efficiency of Denisa = 120/10=12 (which can be inferred as Denisa is taking lesser time so her working efficiency must be greater than Dhwani) Now, for 1 parcel , if they both work simultaneously , => 120/(12+10) = 120/22 For 3 parcels = (3x120)/22 = 16.36 Hope that helps ;).

[@hirmaysandesara8762]

Glad to see you return :), hope to see the remaining quant questions from you There is a short-cut in the last question, if you input y=5 and z=100, you should get 12 and the only option that satisfies the constraint is the first one.

[@EhsanulKarim-dn9fb]

such an incredible trick.

[@adityadesai3755]

10:45 it isn't told that working together told that working simulataneously anf independently. Therefore it should take 20 mins - at 10 min -1st by at Denis 12 th min 2nd by Dwani and at 20th min 3rd by Denis again. feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

[@iftekharsayeedkhan3502]

In the 2nd last question, it said they worked simultaneously and independently. So shouldn’t it take 20 seconds for them to complete? As the first lable was done in 10 sec and 2nd is done 2 sec later by the other person as they were working *simultaneously and independently*. Assuming no time wasted in between the 3rd label should have been done after 8 more sec by the person who did his first labeling in 10 sec?

[@patlollaakhil1614]

Thank you Sir.

[@Jaolay]

Denisa can label 2 parcels in 20 seconds. Within that twenty second time frame Dhwani can complete one parcel and have 8 seconds free time. Thus, at the end of 20 seconds you will have 3 parcels labeled. How am I misunderstanding the question?

[@faguni0179]

Yes I have solved the same way, even I am confused why we are finding combined rate when they are supposed to be working independently

[@vishnug2961]

in Q3: wouldn't solving 60/11 first and then multiplying by 3 yield the same result as solving 180/11... it doesnt make a difference if you convert or not at the first place before multiplying by no of parcels

[@praveenasurya3211]

Hi Philip,what is the difference between identical work rate and normal?

[@samirgiri8070]

In the last question, options (A) and (B) are correct. Which one should we pick?

[@krish.mehta.3822]

In first question there are 6 machines, are they working at same time or in sequential order . As per question I think they are sequential.

[@moontahafarin9305]

@The Tested Tutor I couldn't understand the logic behind the steps. In Q1, don't 6 machine take total 72hrs ? Why we are multiplying machine*time then?

[@TheTestedTutor]

It is 72 machines-hours, not 72 hours. This is why we must divide later

[@moontahafarin9305]

@@TheTestedTutor Thank you for your response. In q1, "6 identical machine take 12s to complete a job". Is 12s cumulative time taken by these 6 machines or individual time taken for a single machine?

[@anastasiastevens8999]

Hello! Thank you for your video. I've been watching all of your Quant videos for several days preparing myself for the exam. However, I do not quite understand example 3. So Dhwani and Denisa work independently, right? As we can see, Denisa is faster. So it will take Denisa 10 seconds for the first parcel and 12 seconds for Dhwani for the second parcel. Since they work independently, Denisa will be the first to finish labeling the third parcel (20 seconds). Because if we talk about real things. I understand that at this point of 16 seconds that we'll complete some percents of their work that would add up to 100 making it the third parcel. But if we look at the parcels at this point, we cannot say that they have labelled 3 parcels in total. I hope that everything that I have written is understandable.

[@TheTestedTutor]

It's not about when they independently finish a third, it is when they combined finish that third parcel. So after 12 seconds there are like 2.2 parcels done total. In the next 4 seconds about 0.7 parcels are done (adding their rates together). So to the nearest second it takes 16 seconds. I get what you are saying but this question assumes you can fractionally label something. :)

[@gowshikumara2868]

Can you pls tell me if the gre exams in India is this much difficulty or is it more different

I gave my GRE today and scored just 300, my English was really poor in there, and somehow I was able to solve almost all Math problems, but still I didn’t score as much as I thought I would

why the number of hours 5 is used as dividing number

[@iris-py4cl]

Hey, Philip sorry that this is unrelated to the video. Just wanted to get your attention. I have been using your strategy of slow reading and fast answering for the verbal section and it does work for me. But I am not able to stop myself from re-reading to understand the sentences better. Is that okay? Coz I am in a dilemma, and my GRE is in a day. I am aiming for a 155V. I got 154V in PP2.
