    Answer : Option A

    Explanation :

     I. (10 x 6) men can complete the work in 1 day.

     1 man's 1 day's work =160

     

    II.[10247]men +[10247]women can complete the work in 1 day

    (2407)men's 1 day work +(2407)women's 1 day work = 1

    [2407160]+(2407)women's 1 day's work = 1

    (2407)women's 1 day's work =[1-47]=37

     10 women's 1 day's work =[37724010]=18

    So, 10 women can finish the work in 8 days.

     

    III. (10 men's work for 3 days) + (10 women's work for 4 days) = 1

           (10 x 3) men's 1 day's work + (10 x 4) women's 1 day's work = 1

           30 men's 1 day's work + 40 women's 1 day's work = 1

       

         Thus, I and III will give us the answer.

          And, II and III will give us the answer.
