Answer is : 8 Explanation:  $2 \times 6$ men = 18 women = 24 children 2 men = 3 women = 4 children 3 women + 4 children = 4 men part of work done in 1 day by 4 men = $\frac{1}{3}$ Remaining $\frac{2}{3}$ work will be finished by 8 men in 1 day. Hence, 8 men would be required.   Akilesh Kharvi ? answered May 29 '2017 at 18:34 All Comments
