Answer : 2. "225 days"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 225 days Explanation: Given that (10M + 15W) x 6 days = 1M x 100 days => 60M + 90W = 100M => 40M = 90W => 4M = 9W. From the given data, 1M can do the work in 100 days => 4M can do the same work in 100/4= 25 days. => 9W can do the same work in 25 days. => 1W can do the same work in 25 x 9 = 225 days.   Hence, 1 woman can do the same work in 225 days.
