    A certain number of persons can complete a piece of work in 55 days. If there were 6 persons more, the work could be finished in 11 days less. How persons were originally there?     

    A)         17

    B)  24    

    C)  30

    D)  22      

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Originally, let there be x men. More men, less days \[\therefore \]\[(x+6):x:\,\,:55:44\] So,       \[\frac{x+6}{x}=\frac{55}{44}=\frac{5}{4}\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[5x=4x+24\] \[x=24\]
