Answer:
10 days
Step-by-step explanation:
question says that a woman takes twice the time taken by one man
so 4 men and 7 women = 4 + 7/2 men = 4 +3.5 = 7.5 men
5 men and 2 women = 5 +2/2 men = 5 + 1 = 6 men
7.5 men = 8 days
6 men = x
the given problem is in inverse variation
7.5 * 8 = 6x
60 = 6x
x = 10 days
