Answer : 3. "36"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 36 Explanation: Given 4men, 12 women and 20 children work for 2 days. Workdone for 2 days by 4men, 12 women and 20 children = 4 x 26 x 12 + 12 x 28 x 18 + 20 x 218 x 10 = 12 Therefore, remaining work = 1 - 12 = 12 To complete the same work by only men in 1 day, We know that M1 x D1 = M2 x D2 Here M1 = 6 , D1 = 12 and M2 = M , D2 = 1 12 x 6 = M x 1 => M = 12 x 6 = 72 => But the remaining work = 1/2 Men required => 1/2 x 72 = 36 Only men required to Complete the remaining work in 1 day = 36.
