The correct Answer is:
To determine how many days 10 women can finish the work, we will analyze the given statements step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement I Statement I states that "10 men finish the work in 6 days." - If 10 men can complete the work in 6 days, then the total work can be calculated as: \[ \text{Total Work} = \text{Number of Men} \times \text{Days} = 10 \text{ men} \times 6 \text{ days} = 60 \text{ man-days} \] ### Step 2: Analyze Statement II Statement II states that "10 women and 10 men finish the work in \(3 \frac{3}{7}\) days." - First, convert \(3 \frac{3}{7}\) days into an improper fraction: \[ 3 \frac{3}{7} = \frac{24}{7} \text{ days} \] - The total work done by 10 men and 10 women in this time is: \[ \text{Total Work} = (\text{Number of Men} + \text{Number of Women}) \times \text{Days} = (10 + 10) \times \frac{24}{7} = 20 \times \frac{24}{7} = \frac{480}{7} \text{ man-woman days} \] ### Step 3: Analyze Statement III Statement III states that "If 10 men work for 3 days and then 10 women are deployed to finish the rest of the work in 4 days." - The work done by 10 men in 3 days: \[ \text{Work done by Men} = 10 \text{ men} \times 3 \text{ days} = 30 \text{ man-days} \] - The remaining work is: \[ \text{Remaining Work} = 60 \text{ man-days} - 30 \text{ man-days} = 30 \text{ man-days} \] - If 10 women finish this remaining work in 4 days, then: \[ \text{Work done by Women} = 10 \text{ women} \times 4 \text{ days} = 40 \text{ woman-days} \] - This means that the total work can also be expressed as: \[ 30 \text{ man-days} = 40 \text{ woman-days} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Efficiency of Women From Statement III, we can find the efficiency of women in terms of men: - Since 30 man-days = 40 woman-days, we can find the efficiency of 1 woman in terms of men: \[ \frac{30}{40} = \frac{3}{4} \text{ man-days per woman} \] - Therefore, 10 women can do: \[ 10 \text{ women} \times \frac{3}{4} \text{ man-days per woman} = 7.5 \text{ man-days} \] ### Step 5: Calculate Days Taken by 10 Women to Finish the Work To find out how many days 10 women take to finish the total work of 60 man-days: - If 10 women do 7.5 man-days of work in 1 day, then: \[ \text{Days taken by 10 women} = \frac{60 \text{ man-days}}{7.5 \text{ man-days per day}} = 8 \text{ days} \] ### Conclusion From the analysis of the statements, we can conclude that both Statements II and III are sufficient to determine how many days 10 women can finish the work. ### Final Answer The correct option is (d) II and III. ---

To determine how many days 10 women can finish the work, we will analyze the given statements step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement I Statement I states that "10 men finish the work in 6 days." - If 10 men can complete the work in 6 days, then the total work can be calculated as: \[ \text{Total Work} = \text{Number of Men} \times \text{Days} = 10 \text{ men} \times 6 \text{ days} = 60 \text{ man-days} ...
