A contractor took a contract to build a road of 12 km in 350 days and employed 45 men. After 200 days he found that only 4.5 km of road was completed. How many additional men must be employed to finish the work in time?
Options
A. 1) 35 men
B. 2) 30 men
C. 3) 45 men
D. 4) 25 men
Explanation
Formula: (M1 * D1) / W1 = (M2 * D2) / W2. (45 * 200) / 4.5 = (M2 * 150) / 7.5 => 2000 = M2 * 20 => M2 = 80 men. Additional men required = 80 - 45 = 35 men.
