Solution

The correct option is A. 2 days

1 man’s 1 day’s work = 1108

12 men’s 6 days’ work = (19×6)=23

Remaining work = (123)=13

18 men’s 1 days work = (1108×18)=16

16 work is done by them in 1 day.

13 work is done by them in(6×13) =2 days

Therefore, remaining work will be completed in 2 days.
