5 men or 8 women can do a job in 12 days.
In how many days will 10 men and 4 women together complete the same job?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
5 Men = 12 Days, 8 Women = 12 Days
5 Men = 8 Women ⇒ 1 Man = 8/5 Women
10 Men = 10 × (8/5) = 16 Women
Total = 16 Women + 4 Women = 20 Women
8 Women → 12 Days
1 Woman → 12 × 8 = 96 Days
20 Women → 96 / 20 = 4.8 Days
