      Question

      40 men or 50 women can build a wall in 30 days. If 40

      men and 50 women work together, how many days will they take to complete 60% of the work?
      A 9 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 5 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 12 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 18 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let efficiency of each man and woman be M and W units/day respectively. So, 40M Γ— 30 = 50W Γ— 30 β‡’ 4M = 5W Total work = 40M Γ— 30 = 1200M units Combined efficiency = 40M + 50W = 40M + 40M = 80M units/day (Since 50W = 40M using 4M = 5W) Required time for 60% of the work = 0.60 Γ— (1200M / 80M) = 9 days
