A contractor undertakes to do a job within 100 days and hires 10 people to do it. After 20 days, he realizes that one fourth of the work is done so he fires 2 people. In how many more days W will the work get over? Answers.
A) 60 B) w = 70 C) w = 75 D) w = 80 E) w = 100

Rationale: "we can also use the concept of man - days here 100 days - - > 10 men so the job includes 100 * 10 = 1000 man - days after 20 days 1 / 4 of job is completed so 1 / 4 x 1000 man - days = 250 man - days job is done now the balance job = 1000 - 250 = 750 man - days worth of job since 2 men are fired so b / l men = 8 therefore total no . of days of job = 750 man - day / 8 days = 375 / 4 = 94 days ( approx . ) now since this is total and ques . is asking for additional no . of days , so 94 - 20 = 74 days the nearest approx . to answer is 75 ans : c ( 75 days )"
Answer: C
