12 persons can do a work in 10 days working 8 hours a day. How many days will be required by 10 persons, who will work 6
hours a day. The efficiency of each of these 10 persons is twice that of the earlier persons.

total amount of work 12*8*10=960 man-hours

10 person complete 10*6*2 or 120 man-hour work in one day
hence they will need 960/120 or 8 days to complete the work

Ans 8 days
