Question

Two men can complete a piece of work in 6 days. Two women can complete the same piece of work in 9 days, whereas three children can complete the same piece of work in 8 days. Three women and four children worked together for 1 day. If only men were to finish the remaining work in 1 day how many total men would be required.

Answer 1

8 men would be required.

Step-by-step explanation:

2×6 men = 18 women = 24 children  

2 men = 3 women = 4 children

3 women + 4 children =  4 men

part of work done in 1 day by 4 men = 1 / 3

Remaining 2 / 3 work will be finished by 8 men in 1 day.

Hence, 8 men would be required.
