1. If 10 men or 18 women can do a work in 45 days, then how many days would it take 25 men and 15 women to do twice the work?

  • A. 9
  • B. 9
  • C. 9
  • D. 9

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Here, 10 men's work = 18 women's work

, ; 1 " " = 18/10 " "

;, 25 " " = 18× 25/10 " "

= 45 women's work

(45 + 15) Women's work = 60 women's work

18 women can do in 45 days

;, 1 woman " " " 18× 45 days

;, 60 women " " " 18× 45/60 "

= 27/2 days

Time needed to done the twice work = 27/2 × 2 = 27 days
