Given:-
- 4 men or 6 women can finish a work in 16 days.
⠀
To find:-
- The same work is completed by 2 mens and 9 womens.
⠀
Solution:-
Let,
- 1 man can do (1/x) of work per day and 1 woman can do (1/y) of work per day .
⠀
As we know that,
- 4 men or 6 women can finish a work in 16 days,
⠀
→ 4 × (1/x) × 16 = 1
→ x = 64
Then,
→ 6 × (1/y) × 16 = 1
→ y = 96
⠀
Now,
- The work completed by 2 by mens and 9 womens.
⠀
→ [(2 × (1/64) + (9 × (1/96) )] × z = 1
→ [1/32 + 3/32] × z = 1
→ [1 + 3/32] × z = 1
→ [4/32] × z = 1
→ [1/8] × z = 1
→ z = 8
⠀
Hence,
- 2 mens and 9 womens can complete the same work in 8 days.
