6 men and 8 women can finish a piece of work in 10 days, while 26 men and 48 women can finish it in 2 days. What is the ratio of the daily work of a man to that of a woman?

A1 : 2
B3 : 1
C2 : 1
D4 : 3

Correct answer: C

Explanation

10 × (6m + 8w) = 2 × (26m + 48w) gives 60m + 80w = 52m + 96w, so 8m = 16w and m : w = 2 : 1.
