20 men complete one-third of a project in 20 days. How many more men should be employed to finish the rest of project in 25 more days?

[GBO 2007]


  • Explanation

    Here,

    M1 = 20, D1 =20, W2 =1-13

    M2 = 20+x, D2 = 25, W1 = 13

    So according to the formula,

         M1 D1 W2 = M2 D2 W1

    20×20×1-13=20+x×25×1320×20×23=20+x×25320+x=253×32×20×2020+x=32x=32-20=12 men

    Hence option C is correct
