Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven :
10 women can do a work in 6 days.
6 men can do the same work in 5 days.
Formula Used :
Work Done = time × efficiency
Calculation :
⇒ 10W × 6 = 6M × 5
⇒ 60W = 30M
⇒ W/M = 1/2
Total Work = 60
Time = 60/(10 × 1 + 6 × 2)
⇒ 60/22 = 30/11
⇒ \(2 \frac{8}{11}\)
∴ The correct answer is \(2 \frac{8}{11}\).
