Let the required number of days be x.
12 men = 18 women
8 men = \(\frac{18}{12} \times 8\) Women = \(\frac{144}{12} => 12\) Women.
(8 men and 16 women) = (12 +16)=>28 Women
Now, More women, Less days (Indirect Proportion)\(28:18 ::14:x\)
\(28 \times x = 18 \times 14\)
\(28 \times x = 252\)
x = \(\frac{252}{28}\)
x=9
