Twenty women can do a work in sixteen days. Sixteen men can complete the same work in fifteen days. What is the ratio between the capacity of a man and a woman?

Answer»

4:3



(20 x 16) women can complete the work in 1 day.
1 WOMAN's 1 day's work = 1/320 .
(16 x 15) men can complete the work in 1 day.
1 MAN's 1 day's work = 1/240
So, required ratio
= 1/240 : 1/320
= 1/3 : 1/4
= 4 : 3 (CROSS multiplied)
