4 men and 6 women finish a job in 8 days, while 3 men and 7 women finish it in 10 days. In how many days will 10 women working together finish it ?

A. 40 days

B. 30 days

C. 60 days

D. 50 days

Correct Answer : A.


Let 1 man's 1 day work = x
and 1 woman's 1 days work = y.
Then, 4x + 6y = 1/8
and 3x+7y = 1/10
solving, we get y = 1/400 [means work done by a woman in 1 day]
10 women 1 day work = 10/400 = 1/40
10 women will finish the work in 40 days
