Answer : 2. "14 men"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 14 men Explanation: M x T / W = Constantwhere, M= Men (no. of men)T= Time takenW= Work loadSo, here we applyM1 x T1/ W1 = M2 x T2 / W2Given that, M1 = 4 men, T1 = 7 hours ; T2 = 2 hours, we have to find M2 =?Note that here, W1 = W2 = 1 road, ie. equal work load.Clearly, substituting in the above equation we get, M2 = 14 men.

Q: Two pipes A and B can fill a tank in 24 hours and 1717 hours respectively. Harihar opened the pipes A and B to fill an empty tank and some times later he closed the taps A and B , when the tank was supposed to be full. After that it was found that the tank was emptied in 2.5 hours because an outlet pipe "C" connected to the tank was open from the beginning.

Answer : 2. "8 hours"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 8 hours Explanation: Efficiency of Inlet pipe A = 4.16% 10024 Efficiency of Inlet pipe B = 5.83% 1001717 Therefore, Efficiency of A and B together = 100 % Now, if the efficiency of outlet pipe be x% then in 10 hours the capacity of tank which will be filled = 10 * (10 - x) Now, since this amount of water is being emptied by 'C' at x% per hour, then 10x10-xx=2.5 hrs => x = 8 Therefore, in 10 hours 20% tank is filled only. Hence, the remaining 80% of the capacity will be filled by pipes A and B in 80/10 = 8 hours
