Question

20 men can do a job in 10 days, working 8 hours a day. if women are 33.33% more efficient than men, how many women will it take to finish the same job in 10 days working 6 hours a day?

Answer 1

This is not a music question by the way. Still here goes the answer.

Total time required for all the men to do the work = 20 x 10 x 8 = 1600

So, in 1 hour, 1 man can work= 1/1600

Here it is said that women are 33.33% more efficient.

So in 1 hour, 1 woman can work=(133.33/100) x (1/1600)

=1.3333/1600

So the work of 1 woman in 10 days, 6 hours each day=10 x 6 x (1.3333/1600)

= 1/20

Therefore, 20 women are required for the work.
