    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let the efficiency of a man and a woman be 'M' and 'W' units/day, respectively.

    So, 20 ├Ч 18 ├Ч M = 30 ├Ч 24 ├Ч W

    Or, M:W = 360 : 720 = 1 : 2

    Let M = 1e and W = 2e

    Let the required time be 'T' days

    So, (1e + 2e) ├Ч T = 20 ├Ч 18 ├Ч 1e

    Or, 3T = 360

    тИ┤ T = 360 ├╖ 3 = 120 days
