Question

If 60 men can do a piece of work in 36 days, in how many days will 48 men complete the same work?

• A. 45
• B. 50
• C. 48
• D. 49

Answer 1

The correct option is A

45

Number of days required to complete a work by 60 men = 36

Number of days required to complete a work by 1 man = 36 x 60

Number of days required to complete a work by 48 men = $\frac{36\times 60}{48}$ = 45 days
