An engineer undertakes a project to build a road 10 km long in 15 days and employs 30 men for the purpose. After 5 days, he finds only 2 km of the road has been completed. Find the (approximate) number of extra men he must employ to finish the work in time.
Choose the correct choice
A) 15 B) 20 C) 25 D) 28 E) 30

Rationale: "30 workers working already let x be the total men required to finish the task in next 10 days 2 km done hence remaining is 8 km also , work has to be completed in next 10 days ( 15 - 10 = 5 ) we know that , proportion of men to distance is direct proportion and , proportion of men to days is inverse proportion hence , x = ( 30 * 8 * 5 ) / ( 2 * 10 ) thus , x = 60 thus , more men needed to finish the task = 60 - 30 = 30 answer : e"
Answer: E
