A) 30                                

B) 25   

C) 20                                

D) 15

Correct Answer: B

Solution :

\[\Rightarrow \]   \[\frac{16}{48}\times \frac{15525}{5750}=\frac{45}{x}\]

\[\therefore \]      \[x=\frac{45\times 48\times 5750}{16\times 15525}=50\]

and given that daily wages of a man are double that of a woman.

Hence, number of men = 25
