Q:

48 people could complete a task in 17 days. After 6 days, 4 of the workers left. How many days from then will it take to complete the task?

A) 12 B) 13
C) 15 D) 16
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 12

Explanation:

Given, 48 people can do a work in 17 days. So total work = 48 x 17 = 816
Work done by 48 people in 6 days = 288.

The remaining work = 816 - 288 = 528
After 6 days four workers left. So number of people working is 44
Total number of days required for 44 men to complete the remaining work = 528/44 = 12
