Q:

6 men can complete a piece of work in 12 days. 8 women can complete the same piece of work in 18 days whereas 18 children can complete the piece of work in 10 days. 4 men, 12 women and 20 children work together for 2 days. If only men were to complete the remaining work in 1 day how many men would be required totally?

A) 38 B) 72
C) 36 D) 76
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 36

Explanation:

Given 4men, 12 women and 20 children work for  2 days.

Workdone for 2 days by 4men, 12 women and 20 children = 4 x 26 x 12 + 12 x 28 x 18 + 20 x 218 x 10 = 12

Therefore, remaining work = 1 - 12 = 12

To complete the same work by only men in 1 day,

We know that M1 x D1 = M2 x D2

Here M1 = 6 , D1 = 12 and M2 = M , D2 = 1

12 x 6 = M x 1

=> M = 12 x 6 = 72

=> But the remaining work = 1/2

Men required => 1/2 x 72 = 36

Only men required to Complete the remaining work in 1 day = 36.
