A certain number of men complete a piece of work in 60 days. If there were 8 men more, the work could be finished in 10 days less. How many men were originally there?
A). 20 men
B). 30 men
C). 40 men
D). 50 men
40 men
Let ‘x’ be the original number of men
Then 1 work done = x × 60
Then, 60x = (x + 8) 50
60x = 50x + 400
10 x = 400
x = 40.
