2 men and 1 woman can complete a piece of work in 14 days while 4 women and 2 men can do the same work in 8 days. If a man gets ₹ 60 per day, what should be the wages per day of a woman?
-
- ₹ 30
- ₹ 35
- ₹ 40
- ₹ 50
Correct Option: C
(2 men and 1 woman)’ s one day’s work = 1/ 14
In other words, 2 × 14 men and 1 × 14
women can complete the work in one day......................................( i)
(4 women and 2 men)’ s one day’s work = 1/ 8
In other words, 4 × 8 women and 2 × 8 men can complete the work in one day.......................................................( ii)
Now, from equations (i) and (ii),
28 men and 14 women = 16 men and 32 women
12 men = 18 women
18 women will get = ₹ 12 × 60 per day.
| 1 woman will get = ₹ | = ₹ 40 per day. | |
| 18 |
