    If 24 clerks can clear 180 files in 15 days, then number of clerks required to clear 240 files in 12 days, is

    A)  38       

    B)         40       

    C)         42      

    D)         44

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    From     \[\frac{{{M}_{1}}{{D}_{1}}}{{{W}_{1}}}=\frac{{{M}_{2}}{{D}_{2}}}{{{W}_{2}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{24\times 15}{180}=\frac{{{M}_{2}}\times 12}{240}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[{{M}_{2}}=\frac{24\times 15\times 240}{180\times 12}=40\] \[\therefore \]      \[{{M}_{2}}=40\] Hence, 40 clerks required to complete the work in time.
