A contract is to be completed in 52 days and 125 identical robots were employed, each operational for 7 hours a day. After 39 days, five-seventh of the work was completed. How many additional robots would be required to complete the work on time, if each robot is now operational for 8 hours a day?

- 50
- 89
- 146
- 175
Correct Option: D
125 × 7 × 39 = 5x/7
∴ x or total work = 25 × 39 × 49
Hence, [125 + y(additional robot)] × 8 × 13 = 25 × 39 × 49 × 2/7
Thus, the given data is insufficient to answer the question.
