A.

25 days

B.

28 days

C.

30 days

D.

Correct option is B

Given:

A labour gets Rs. 4800 for 16 days of work.

Formula Used:

Payment for 16 daysNumber of days=Payment for x daysNumber of days x\frac{\text{Payment for 16 days}}{\text{Number of days}} = \frac{\text{Payment for \( x \) days}}{\text{Number of days \( x \)}}

Solution:

Let the number of days he should work to get Rs. 8400 be x.

480016=8400x\frac{4800}{16} = \frac{8400}{x}

300=8400x300 = \frac{8400}{x}

x = 8400300=28 \frac{8400}{300} = 28

So, the labour should work 28 days to get Rs. 8400.

Thus, the correct option is (b) 28
