SSC Selection Post - Matriculation Level - 28 June 2023 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q64

By working 12 hours a day, 90 people can complete a work in 16 days. How much work will be left after 24 days if 70 people work for 8 hours per day?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 29{{2} \over 9}.

Total work = 90 × 12 × 16 = 17280

Work done = 70 × 8 × 24 = 13440

Work remaining = (17280 - 13440)/17280 = 3840/17280 = 2/9
