Solution

The correct option is A 10 days

5 workers can complete the work in 20 days

Number of days taken by one worker to complete the same work is

= 5 ⋅ 20 days

= 100 days

Number of days taken by 10 workers to complete the same work is

= 100 / 10 days

= 10 days

So, 10 workers can complete the work in 10 days.
