      the same work and left after working for β€˜y’ days. The remaining work is completed by 6 men in 15 days. Find the value of β€˜y’.
      A 10 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 7 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 15 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 22 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Total work = 16 Γ— 10 = 160 man-days. When 10 men work for β€˜y’ days, the work done = 10y man-days. Remaining work = 160 - 10y man-days. 6 men complete the remaining work in 15 days, so: 6 Γ— 15 = 90 man-days. Therefore, 10y + 90 = 160 10y = 70 y = 70/10 y = 7
