Correct Answer: 10 hours
Solution : Given: Ram can copy 60 pages in 15 hours. Total pages = Pages per hour × Time Ram's rate is $\frac{60}{15} = 4$ pages per hour. Together, Ram and Riya can copy 180 pages in 30 hours. So, their combined rate (Ram + Riya) is $\frac{180}{30} = 6$ pages per hour. Ram + Riya = 6 pages per hour ⇒ 4 + Riya = 6 pages per hour ⇒ Riya = 2 pages per hour Let T be the time in hours for Riya. So, 20 pages = 2 pages per hour × T ⇒ T $=\frac{20}{2}=10$ hours Hence, the correct answer is 10 hours.
