If 8 men or 12 women can do a piece of work in 25 days, in how many days can 6 men and 11 women do the same work? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

If 8 men or 12 women can do a piece of work in 25 days, in how many days can 6 men and 11 women do the same work?
A. 12 days
B. 16 days
C. 15 days
D. 18 days
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
8 Men = 12 Women => 1 Man = 1.5 Women. 6 men + 11 women = 6 * 1.5 + 11 = 9 + 11 = 20 women. Since 12 women do the work in 25 days, 20 women will do it in (12 * 25) / 20 = 300 / 20 = 15 days.
