If 3 men and 4 boys can do a piece of work in 8 day, then 6 men and 8 boys can do the same work in ?
-
- 2 days
- 4 days
- 6 days
- 16 days
Correct Option: B
Let the men do the work in a days and the boys in b days.
∴ (3/a) + (4/b) = 1/8 ..... (i)
Now, 6/a + 8/b = 2[(3/a) + (4/b)] = 2 x 1/8 = 1/4
So, 6 men and 8 boys can do the same work in 4 days.
