3 men or 5 women can do a work in 12 days. How long will 6 men and5 women take to finish the work?(a) 4 days(b) 10 days(c) 15 days(d) 20 days

Answer»

Men are 5/3 times as fast as Women.3 Men = 5 Women,3*12 = 3 men * 12 days = 36 man days.5*12 = 60 women days.5 women = 3 men, substitute into 2nd scenario,6 Men + 3 Men = 9 Men.3 Men take 12 days, therefore triple the men (9), third the time (4).It will take 4 days.
