Here is the question for PS


Q- A movie studio M produces 5 mindless action flicks per year, and movie studio N produces 12 mindless action flicks every three years. If the two studios sign a five-year contract to work together and continue to produce these masterpieces at the same rate, how many will be made over the course of the contract?

A)17
B)25
C)36
D)45
E)85


Thanks for your responses.

M- 5 action per year

N -12 action every 3 years,4 action per year

M+N in 1 year=9 action flicks

In 5 years,45 action flicks

how can we assume that if N is making 12 in 3 years, that he will make 4 every year..what if he made 6 in one year and 5 in one year and 1 in one year...

i can see the answer as M making 5 per year- therefore in a space of 5 years= 25
N making 12 in 3 years, therefore total is 25+12= 37, though this is not an answer choice..

would appreciate an expert opinion.

generally in work and time problem we say that if m takes n days to complete the work, then m can do 1/n work in a day

i can see the answer as M making 5 per year- therefore in a space of 5 years= 25
N making 12 in 3 years, therefore total is 25+12= 37, though this is not an answer choice..

N making 12 in 3 years. but we need how much movie is made in 5 year

would appreciate an expert opinion.
