    If 12 men or 18 women can reap a field in 14 days, then working at the same rate, 8 men and 16 women can reap the same field in how many days?

    A) 9 days                          

    B) 5 days

    C) 7 days                          

    D) 8 days

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     \[12\text{ M}=18W\text{ }\Rightarrow \text{ }2M=3W\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\frac{{{M}_{1}}{{D}_{1}}{{H}_{1}}}{{{W}_{1}}}=\frac{{{M}_{2}}{{D}_{2}}{{H}_{2}}}{{{W}_{2}}}\] \[\frac{18\times 14}{1}=\frac{(12+16)\times D}{1}\] \[\frac{18\times 14}{1}=\frac{28\times D}{1}\,\,D=\mathbf{9}\,\,\mathbf{Days}\]
