A officer undertakes to complete a job in 250 days. He employs 300 male for 50 days and they complete 1/2 of the work . He then reduces the number of male to 100, who work for 120 days, after which there are 20 days holidays. How many male must be employed for the remaining period to finish the work? a) 25 b) 50 c) 45 d) 35

1 Answer

Answer :

B

300 male in 50 days do = 1/2work

1 male in 1 day does = ½*1/50*1/300 work

100 male in 120 days do = ½ *1/50*1/300 *100*120 =2/5 work

Total work done = ½ + 2/5 =(5+4)/10=9/10

Remaining work = 1-9/10=1/10

Remaining time = (250-50-120-20)=60days

½ work is done in 50 days by 300 male

1/10 work is done in 60 days by

=300*50*1*2/10*60

=50 male
