3 men and 7 women can complete a work in 10 days . But 4 men and 6 women need 8 days to complete the same work . In how many days will 10 women complete the same work?

A. 50
B. 30
C. 40
D. 13

Work done by 4 men and 6 women in 1 day = 1/8
Work done by 3 men and 7 women in 1 day = 1/10
Let 1 man does m work in 1 day and 1 woman does w work in 1 day. The above equations can be written as
4m + 6w = 1/8 —(1)
3m + 7w = 1/10 —(2)
Solving equation (1) and (2) , we get m=11/400 and w=1/400
Amount of work 10 women can do in a day = 10 × (1/400) = 1/40
Ie, 10 women can complete the work in 40 days
