    B 48 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 63 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 44 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Ratio of efficiency of P and Q = 5:3 Let the efficiency of P and Q be 5x and 3x units per day respectively. Total work = 8x × 24 = 192x units Required time = (0.75 × 192x)/3x = 48 days
