Correct Answer: 66. (5)
Solution: 66. (5) III. $3 \mathrm{~W}=2 \mathrm{~M}$
$\therefore 6 \mathrm{~W}=4 \mathrm{M}$ and $9 \mathrm{~W}=6 \mathrm{M}$
$14 \mathrm{M}+9 \mathrm{~W}=14+9=23 \mathrm{M}$
$11 \mathrm{M}+6 \mathrm{~W}=11+6=17 \mathrm{M}$
20 men can do the work in 15 days.
$\therefore \quad 15$ men can do the work in 10 days
$\frac{15 \times 20}{15}=20$ days
