Syllabus complete aptitude problem

a) 4 days

b) 6 days

c) 8 days

d) 10 days

The solution is given below :

EXPLANATION:

Ok Let us assume that your portion has something like 8 chapters.

If you calculate then (5/8)th of that will be 5 chapters.

So then since its given that 5 chapters take 10 days, they are asking …how much time will the remaining portion i.e (8-5 = 3 Chapters)  take ?

Now, from above statement we can say that 1 chapter takes 2 days. So remaining 3 chapters will take 6 days

Hence the correct option is (b) 6 days
