Question

If 6 men or 8 women can reap a field in 86 days, how long will 14 men and 10 women take to
reap it?

Answer 1

Answer:

6M = 8W

M/W = 4/3

Total work = 86(6*4)

This done by 14M + 10W now ,

their efficiency of 1 day = 14*4+10*3 = 86

time they will take to complete total work = 86(6*4)/86 = 24 days . (Ans)

Answer 2

ANS:24 DAYS

Step-by-step explanation:

6 MEN = 8 WOMEN

3 MEN = 4 WOMEN

4 WOMEN = 3 MEN

1 WOMEN = 3/4 MEN

TOTAL WORK: 6 ×86 ( as per men work )

A.T.Q.

14 MEN + 10 WOMEN

= 14 MEN + 10 × 3/4 MEN

= 14 MEN + 7.5 MEN

= 21.5 MEN

SO, 6 × 86/ 21.5 = 6 × 4 = 24 DAYS.
