If 15 men can complete a work in 16 days
If 15 men can complete a work in 16 days. If 24 men are employed, then the time required to complete that work will be
- 7 days
- 8 days
- 10 days
- 12 days
Answer
We can measure the work in terms of man days. Since the same work is being done, number of man days should be constant. So,
Work done = Man-days = 15 × 16 = 24 × D, where D is the number of days.
⇨ D = (15 × 16) / 24 = 10 days
The correct option is C.
