Options:

20 days

24 days

32 days

30 days

Correct Answer:

32 days

Explanation:

Formula to be used :

⇒ \( { M}_{1 } \) x \( { D}_{1 } \)  = \( { M}_{2 } \) x \( { D}_{2 } \)

where, M = N. of men, D = No. of days,

⇒ Putting values in the formula;

⇒ 8 x 24 = 6 x \( { D}_{2 } \)

⇒ \( { D}_{2 } \) = 32 days.
