Question
In how many days will 8 men complete a task? I.
Five men, three children and two women together can complete the task in 12 days. II. Eight women complete the task in 20 days. III. Three men complete the task in 16 days. In each of these questions, one question is given followed by by data in three statements I, II and III. You have to study the question and data in the statements and decide that the question can be answered with the data given in which of the statements and mark your answer accordingly. ÂSolution
From I In statement I there is only one condition. So we cannot find the answer. From II We have to find the days of men’s work and in statement II, the data is regarding women. So we cannot find the answer. From III 3 men = 16 days ∴ 8 men = (16 × 3)/8 = 6 days Hence, only statement III is sufficient to answer the question.
