The benefits to this are the same as you are using right now reading this page. A time-sharing system (what we call a server nowadays) provides many many people the opportunity to use the system. Technically, even a standard PC is a time-sharing system, because you can run many different programs on it at a time (think Browser, iTunes, Anti-Virus, etc.).
The old mainframe systems had a card reader and an output. Only one set of cards could be run through at a time. So, if payroll was running through all 14000 employee's paycheck calculations, you had to wait until they were done. Modern mainframe systems have some time-sharing capabilities by allowing multiple processes to run on the system, but those processes are virtualized, rather than a true sharing system. However, the details of that can be left to others.
There are benefits and downsides to every type of system. In a mainframe-style system, all resources are available to the process being run, which benefits large data crunching operations (like payroll). The downside to a mainframe-style system is that only one process can run at a time in each virtual machine.
In a server-style system, all resources are shared among all processes. If a process "runs away" by using more processes than it should, then the other processes suffer, which the end-user sees as a server responding very slowly and/or "timing out". The upside to a server-style system is that you can serve web pages to thousands of people, while at the same time handling thousands of pieces of email.
When the timeshare system has more resources available to you than the workstation. For instance if you compare 8 people having their own workstation but only utilising them 3 hours a day then each could have a 3 hour slot on an 8 processor machine instead and get their work done 8 times more quickly ( assuming the application can utilise more than one processor )
Under what circumstances would a user be better off using a time sharingsystem rather then a personal computer or singl user workstation?
Other people can pull up a file very fast. Without having to go the computer they saved it on.
Its the best when you have 3 or more computers
in this the CPU is not idle.
Under what circumstances would a user be better of using a time sharing system rather than a PC or single user workstation?
EMP: when you use embedded systems, it would be better to better off since it's focus on a particular task than multiple tasks.
Twin sharing basis is a term that is used in the hotel industry. It means that the price is based on two people sharing a room rather than on single occupancy.
It rather depends on the circumstances. For instance, a robot sent into places too dangerous for a human is better. A robot working twenty four hours in a factory is better (cheaper) than paying humans to work in shifts, though it would lead to unemployment. So, there are two sides to this question.

It rather depends on the circumstances. If someone was running a small business, and had their computer stolen with their customer list, and corresponding bank details - it would be better to keep it quiet, and contact the customers directly. However - if it was someone like Abbey, who has millions of customers - it would make better sense to announce the breach publicly, thus reaching more of their customers in one go.
Under normal circumstances it is better to have two parents. However, if there is trouble within the marriage sometimes a divorce is the better route to find a better life for all involved, and families can find new ways to function very well.
Texas became better known as the "REGION", rather than the republic of Texas.
Better business. With a better business money will follow.
"It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness" is a saying that refers to being proactive, rather than just lamenting bad circumstances. The saying comes from Amnesty International founder, Peter Benenson, during a speech in 1961. He got the idea from a few phrases in the Bible.
Frogs are not typically scavengers but rather hunters or predators. Under difficult circumstances they may be forced to scavenge for food.
"had better" is used to give advice or make a recommendation, while "would rather" is used to express a preference between two options. For example, "You had better study for the exam" and "I would rather go to the beach than stay at home."
