1. If 8 men can do a job in 12 days, what is the percentage increase in the number of days required to do the job when 2 men are released?
- A. 33.33%
- B. 33.33%
- C. 33.33%
- D. 33.33%
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Remaining men = 8 - 2 = 6
8 men can do the job in 12 days
So, 6 men can do te job in 12×8/6 = 16 days
Increase percentage in number of days = (16 - 12) / 12 × 100% = 33.33%
