SSC Selection Post - Matriculation Level 2022 - 9 Feb 2022 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q54

25 women can do one-third of the work in 6 days. How many women should be employed so that the work is completed in 5 days?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 90.

Let W be the number of women required to complete the work in 5 days

⇒ W1 × D1 × H1/W1 = W2 × D2 × H2/W2

⇒ 25×613=W×51{25 × 6\over{1\over3}} = {W × 5\over1}

⇒ W = 90
