      B 20.25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 19.20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 21.60 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the men's efficiency = M Women's efficiency = W ATQ- Β  (15M + 25W) x 9.6 = 16W x 27 (15M + 25W) x 16 = 16W x 45 (15Mx16) + (25W x 16) = 16W x 45 (15M x 16) = (16W x 45) - (25W x 16) (15M x 16) = (16 x 20W) 15M = 20W M/W = 20/15 = 4/3 Total work = 16W x 27 = 16 x 3 x 27 Time taken to complete the total work by 16 men = (16 x 3 x 27)/ (16 x 4) =81/4 = 20.25 days
