5 women can complete a work in 8 days and 8 children take 10 days to complete the work.
Formula used:
If a person can do a piece of work in days then that person's 1 day's work =
Calculations:
5W × 8 = 8C × 10
W/C = 2/1
Let the efficiency of women is 2 and children is 1.
Total work - 5 × 2 × 8 = 80
The work done by 2 women and 4 children = 2W + 4C
2 × 2 + 4 × 1 = 8
Number of days = 80/8 = 10 days.
∴ The answer is 10 days.
