SSC GD Constable (English) - 7 Feb 2023 - Shift 2 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q46

If 12 men can build a wall 60 metres long in 5 days, then what length of a similar wall can be built by 24 men in 2 days ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 48 metres.

We know that,

(M1 × D1 × H1)/W1 = (M2 × D2 × H2)/W2

⇒ (12 × 5)/60 = (24 × 2)/W2

⇒ 1 = 48/W2

⇒ W2 = 48 metres

Thus, the length of the wall will be 48 meters
