A, B and C can complete a work in 12, 15 and 20 days respectively. If they work together, in how many days will the work be completed?
A. 6 days

Question #3
If 3 men or 5 women can do a piece of work in 12 days, in how many days will 6 men and 5 women complete the same work?
A. 3 days

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
3 Men = 5 Women => 6 Men = 10 Women. 6 men + 5 women = 10 women + 5 women = 15 women. Since 5 women take 12 days, 15 women will take (5 * 12) / 15 = 60 / 15 = 4 days.
