Work done by two men is equal to work done by three women, and work done by five women is equal to work done by seven boys. If 16 men can finish a work in 2 days, then in how many days the work will be completed by two boys?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 33.6
Concept Used:
Total work = Efficiency × total time
Explanation:
According to the given question,
2M = 3W
And 5W = 7B
⇒ 10M = 15W = 21B
⇒ 10M = 21B
Now, total work done by 16 men in 2 days = 32 units
Now, the time taken by 2 boys to complete this work = = 33.6 days
Hence the required answer is 33.6 days
