Question 19 Back to Exercise

A worker plans to finish a job in 15 days, but he works at only 80% of the planned speed. How many extra days does he need?

  • A 3 days
  • B 3.75 days Correct
  • C 18.75 days
  • D 4 days
Correct Answer: Option B

Time ∝ 1/speed

Actual time = 15 ÷ 0.8 = 18.75 days

Extra = 3.75 days

Trap: 20% of 15 = 3 days treats it as direct.

Answer: 3.75 days
