Question

    If 3/5 of the work is done by 35 workers in 6 days, then how many more workers would be required to complete the remaining work in next 2 days?

    A 20 workers Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 25 workers Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 15 workers Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 35 workers Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the extra workers required be ‘x’. According to question, (35 × 6)/ (3/5) = {(35 + x) × 2}/ (2/5) (210 x 5)/ 3 = {(35 + x) x 2 x 5} / 2 70 = 35 + x, x = 35 So, the number of extra workers required = 35
