Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven :
Work done by 8 men is completed in 10 days.
Same work can be completed in 12 days when done by 10 women.
Formula Used :
M1H1D1/W1 = M2H2D2/W2
Calculation :
⇒ 8M × 10 = 10W × 12
⇒ 80M = 120W
⇒ M/W = 120/80 = 3/2
Total Work = 8 × 3 × 10 = 240
Now, 240 = (4M + 4W) × time
⇒ time = 240/(4 × 3 + 4 × 2)
⇒ time = 240/20 = 12 days
∴ The correct answer is 12 days.
