  • Question
  • 14 men can complete a work in 12 days. 4 days after they started the work, 2 more men joined them. How many days will they take to complete the remaining work?


  • Options
  • A. 9 days
  • B. 5 days
  • C. 6 days
  • D. 7 days

  • Correct Answer
  • 7 days 

    Explanation

    ? In 12 days work done by 14 men = 1
    ? In 4 days work done by 14 men = 1 x 4/12 = 1/3
    ? Remaining work = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3
    and number of total men = 14 + 2 = 16
    If 1 work is done by 14 men in 12 days
    ? 2/3 work is done by 16 men in 12 x (14/16) x (2/3) = 7 days
