Correct Answer: $13$ days


Solution : Given, Anju is 30% more efficient than Bittu.
Time taken by Anju to complete the work alone = 23 days
Let the efficiency of Bittu be 100.
Efficiency of Anju = 100 + 30 = 130
Total work = 130 × 23 = 2990
Combined efficiency of Anju and Bittu = 100 + 130 = 230
Time taken by them to complete the work
= $\frac{\text{Total Work}}{\text{Total efficiency}}$
= $\frac{2990}{230}$
= $13$ days
Hence, the correct answer is $13$ days.
