1. 8 males and 6 females can do a piece of work in 5 days, 5 males and 6 females can complete the same work in 7 days . How many days will a female take to do the job, if she works alone?

  • A. 135 days
  • B. 135 days
  • C. 135 days
  • D. 135 days

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

(8M + 6F) × 5 = (5M + 6F) × 7

= > 40M + 30F = 35M + 42F

= > 5M = 12F

Now, (5M + 6F) = 12F + 6F = 18F

18F can do in = 7 days

1F can do in = 18x 7 = 126 days Ans.
