Question

12 men can complete a work in 8 days 16 women can complete the same work in 12 days.8 men and 8 women worked for 6 days how many more men to be included in order to complete the remaining work in 1 day?

Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

1 man's 1 day work =1/96 ; 1 woman's 1 day work = 1/192

Work done in 6 days=6(896+8192)=6×18 =34

Remaining work = 1/4

(8 men +8 women)'s 1 day work = 1(896+8192) =1/8

Remaining work =1/4 - 1/8 = 1/8

1/96 work is done in 1 day by 1 man

Therefore, 1/8 work will be done in 1 day by 96 x (1/8) =12 men
