Fifteen men can complete a piece of work in 10 days, working 8 hours per day. How many persons are required to complete double the work in 25 days, working 6 hours per day ?
Correct option is (A) 27
Given that 36 men can built a wall in 12 days.
\(\therefore\) Total work = 36 \(\times\) 12
Let 16 men can built the wall in x days.
\(\therefore\) Total work = 16 \(\times\) x
\(\because\) Both work...
Correct option is (B) 36
Total work done by 24 men in 14 days by working 6 hours a day \(=24\times14\times6\)
Let x men are required to complete same work in 8 days...
Correct option is (D) \(\frac{(a+1)^2}{a+2}\)
Work done by (a+1) works in (a+1) days = (a+1) (a+1)
\(=(a+1)^2\)
Number of days required to complete the same work by (a+2) members \(=\frac{\text{Total work}}{a+2}\)
\(=\frac{(a+1)^2}{a+2}\)
