9 Men and 15 women will finish the work in 3 days.
GIVEN
- Number of days a Work completed by 6 men and 5 women = 6 days
- Number of days a Work completed by 3 men and 4 women = 10 days
TO FIND
Number of days in which the work will be completed by 9 men and 15 women.
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the given problem as under -
Let the number of days taken by 9 men and 15 women be x
we know,
work done by 9 men and 15 women in x days = work done by 6 men and 15 in 6 days = work done by 3 men and 4 women in 10 days.
we can rewrite it as -
(9M + 15W)x = (6M + 5W)×6 ........(eq 1)
and,
(6M + 5W)×6 = (3M + 4W) × 10. ......(eq 2)
solving (eq 2) we get ;
18M + 15W = 15M + 20W
3M = 5W..............(eq 3 )
So, work or 3 Men is equal to work of 5 women
Now, putting the value of M form (eq 3) to (eq 1) we get;
(15W+ 15W)x = (10W + 5W)6
(30W)x = 90w
x = 3
Hence, 9 Men and 15 women will finish the work in 3 days.
