20 women can complete a weaving order in 15 days. After 5 days of work, 5 of the women leave. In how many more days will the remaining women finish the order?
- 15 days
- 10 days
- 12 days
- 13 1/3 days
Answer and explanation
Answer: D. 13 1/3 days
Explanation: Total work = 20 × 15 = 300 woman-days; 20 × 5 = 100 is done, leaving 200. With 15 women, 200 ÷ 15 = 13 1/3 days are needed.
