If 6 men or 8 women can reap a field in 21.5 days. How long will 14 men and 10 women take to reap it?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 6 days.
6 men or 8 women
3 men = 4 women
1.5 men = 2 women
10 women = 1.5 × 5 = 7.5 men
Total number of men = 14 + 7.5 = 21.5
Work done by 6 men in 21.5 days
Work done by 21.5 men = (21.5 × 6)/21.5 = 6 days
