Question

    In each of the following questions, read the following questions, read the given statements and compare given two quantities on its basis:

    10 women and 12 men complete a certain piece of work in 30 days, if each women takes thrice the time taken by a man to finish the work.

    Quantity I – How many days will 17 men and 33 women can take to finish the same work?

    Quantity II – How many days will 26 men and 12 women can take to finish the same work?

    A Quantity I > Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Quantity I < Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Quantity I ≥ Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Quantity I ≤ Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Quantity I = Quantity II Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    17 m + 33 women = 17 m + 11 m = 28 men (in Quantity I). 26 m + 12 women = 26 m + 4 m = 30 men (in Quantity II). Clearly 30 men will take less days to complete a work than 28 men. ∴ Quantity I > Quantity II.
