Q:

A Contractor employed a certain number of workers  to finish constructing a road in a certain scheduled time. Sometime later, when a part of work had been completed, he realised that the work would get delayed by three-fourth of the  scheduled time, so he at once doubled the no of workers and thus he managed to finish the road on the scheduled time. How much work he had been completed, before increasing the number of workers?

A) 10 % B) 14 ( 2/7 )%
C) 20 % D) Can't be determined
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 14 ( 2/7 )%

Explanation:

Let he initially employed x workers which works for D days and he estimated 100 days for the whole work and then he doubled the worker for (100-D) days.

D * x +(100- D) * 2x= 175x 

=>  D= 25 days 

Now , the work done in 25 days = 25x 

Total work = 175x

Therefore, workdone before increasing the no of workers = 25x175x×100 % = 1427%
