Solution

The correct option is D

9 days


If, on some day, 6 workers employed on this job, then the only possibility is:

Day 1Day 2Day 3Day 4Day 5Day 6Manhrs345654216

Since, Mr. soni paid the same amount as wages in both the cases, the man-hours in both the cases must be the same.

Three workers would have taken =(1203×8)=9 days to complete the same job.
