Solution : Given: Babita is 1.25 times as efficient as Deepak. They both can complete work in 40 days. Let the efficiency of Deepak be $x$ Efficiency of Babita $= 1.25x$ Effective efficiency $= x+1.25x = 2.25x$ Total work = Efficiency $×$ Time $= 2.25x × 40 = 90x$ Work done by Deepak with efficiency of $x = \frac {90x}{x} = 90$ days Hence, the correct answer is 90.
