9 hours a day. How many women can complete rest of the work if they work for 6 hours a day for 45 days and efficiency of a man is four times the efficiency of a woman.Solution
Let number of women be W. We know that, (M1 Γ D1 Γ H1 Γ E1)/W1 = (M2 Γ D2 Γ H2 Γ E2)/W2 (45 Γ 8 Γ 9 Γ 4)/(3/5) = (W Γ 45 Γ 6 Γ 1)/(2/5) W = 32
