Aptitude - Time and Work - Discussion
Each of these questions is followed by three statements. You have to study the question and all the three statements given to decide whether any information provided in the statement(s) is redundant and can be dispensed with while answering the given question.
8 men and 14 women are working together in a field. After working for 3 days, 5 men and 8 women leave the work. How many more days will be required to complete the work? | |
I. | 19 men and 12 women together can complete the work in 18 days. |
II. | 16 men can complete two-third of the work in 16 days. |
III. | In 1 day, the work done by three men in equal to the work done by four women. |
Clearly, I only gives the answer.
Similarly, II only gives the answer.
And, III only gives the answer.
Correct answer is (D).
If you analyse the question thoroughly , you will find that , all the three statements are reqd to solve this problem and the answer is , 43.4 days will took to complete the remaining work if 3 men and 6 womens work together .
And alone the statement I just give another equation in two variables which doesn't help at all.
Because it gives the relation between the rate of men versus women.
