Answer 2

Time taken by 5 women is 10.8 or 11 days

GIVEN

Number of women = 9

Time taken to complete the work = 6

TO FIND

Time taken to complete the work by women.

SOLUTION

We can simply solve the given problem as under -

It is given that 9 women complete a work in 6 days.

This means the number of days is inversely proportional to the number of women working.

Let, the time taken by 5 women be, x

since the work done is equal,

Therefore,

$9 \times 6 = 5x$

$x = \frac{54}{5} = 10.8$

Rounding of 10.8 = 11

Hence, Time taken by 5 women is 10.8 or 11 days.
