    76 ladies complete a job in 33 days. Due to some reason some ladies did not join the work and therefore it was completed in 44 days. The number of ladies who did not report for the work is

    A) 17                                

    B) 18       

    C) 19                    

    D) 20

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Given, number of ladies \[{{W}_{1}}=76\] The number of days to complete the work, \[{{D}_{1}}=33\] Let number of ladies who did not report for the work = x By given condition,             \[{{W}_{2}}=76-x\] and       \[{{D}_{2}}=44\] \[\because \]       \[{{W}_{1}}{{D}_{1}}={{W}_{2}}{{D}_{2}}\] \[\therefore \]      \[76\times 33=(76-x)\times 44\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[76-x=\frac{76\times 3}{4}=19\times 3\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x=76-57=19\]
