Q10.
If 6 men and 8 boys can do a piece of work in 10 days, and 26 men and 48 boys can do the same work in 2 days, then the time taken by 15 men and 20 boys to do the same work will be:
- 3 days
- 4 days
- 5 days
- 6 days
Show answer
Answer: B. 4 days
Let the efficiency of a man be M and a boy be B.
(6M + 8B) × 10 = (26M + 48B) × 2
60M + 80B = 52M + 96B
60M - 52M = 96B - 80B
8M = 16B
1M = 2B
Total work = (6M + 8B) × 10 = (6M + 4M) × 10 = 10M × 10 = 100 man-days.
Now, we need to find the time taken by 15 men and 20 boys.
15 men + 20 boys = 15M + (20/2)M = 15M + 10M = 25M.
Time taken = Total work / Efficiency = 100M / 25M = 4 days.
