Question #3
If 3 men or 4 women can plow a field in 43 days, how long will 7 men and 5 women take to plow it?
A. 10 days
B. 8 days
C. 12 days

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
3 Men = 4 Women => 1 Man = 4/3 Women. 7 men + 5 women = 7 * (4/3) + 5 = 28/3 + 5 = 43/3 women. Since 4 women take 43 days, 43/3 women will take (4 * 43) / (43/3) = 4 * 3 = 12 days.
