SSC CHSL - 2nd July 2019 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q54

If 30 persons take 10 days to complete a certain work by working 8 hours a day, then 40 persons should work how many hours a day so that the work is completed in 6 days?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 10.

M1 × D1 × H1/W1 = M2 × D2 × H2/W2

where,

M = Men

D = Days

H = Hours

W = Work

30 × 10 × 8 = 40 × 6 × H2

⇒ H2 = 2400/240

⇒ H2 = 10 

Hence, 10 hours is the answer.
