    Explanation

    Assume that 1 man can complete the work alone in M days. ∴ In 1 day 1 man can do 1÷M part of the work. [Assuming total work = 1 unit] ⇒In 1 day 16 man can do 16÷M part of the work. 1 woman can complete the work alone in W days. ∴ In 1 day 1 woman can do 1÷W part of the work. [Assuming total work = 1 unit] ⇒In 1 day 8 man can do 8÷W part of the work. If in K days 16 men and 8 women together can complete the piece of work then, [Assuming total work = 1 unit] K(16M+8W)=1K\left( {\frac{{16}}{M} + \frac{8}{W}} \right) = 1 From statement 1: 8 men complete the piece of work in 10 days. ⇒8×10M=1\Rightarrow \frac{{8 \times 10}}{M} = 1 ⇒ M = 80 days. From statement 2: 16 women complete the piece of work in 10 days. ⇒16×10W=1\Rightarrow \frac{{16 \times 10}}{W} = 1 ⇒ W = 160 days. From statement 3: 5 women complete the piece of work in 32 days. ⇒32×5W=1\Rightarrow \frac{{32 \times 5}}{W} = 1 ⇒ W = 160 days. From statement 1 & 2 or 1 & 3: M = 80 days & W = 160 days. We know that, K(16M+8W)=1K\left( {\frac{{16}}{M} + \frac{8}{W}} \right) = 1 ⇒K(1680+8160)=1\Rightarrow K\left( {\frac{{16}}{{80}} + \frac{8}{{160}}} \right) = 1 ⇒ K = 4 ∴ In 4 days 16 men and 8 women together complete the piece of work. ∴ Only I and either II or III required to solve the question.
