Answer 2

Answer:

26.2days

Step-by-step explanation

If each person does X work and in the last 8 days (as the total work was finished in 23 days as mentioned. So 23-15 is 8 days).

35 men worked then total work done in the last 8 days is 35 * 8 *X = 280X.

Now if the original number of men was maintained then 280X/25X = 11.2 days.

Thus, total number of days that they would have needed to finish the work is 15 + 11.2= 26.2 days.
