Answer:

B. 8

Read Explanation:

To find the number of days needed:

Step 1: Calculate the total work done by 12 persons in 1 day

Total work = 1 work
12 persons can complete the work in 10 days, so:
12 persons can complete 1/10 of the work in 1 day

Step 2: Calculate the work done by 1 person in 1 day

Work done by 1 person in 1 day = (1/10) / 12 = 1/120

Step 3: Calculate the work done by 15 persons in 1 day

Work done by 15 persons in 1 day = 15 × (1/120) = 1/8

Step 4: Calculate the number of days needed to complete the work by 15 persons

Number of days = Total work / Work done by 15 persons in 1 day
= 1 / (1/8)
= 8

So, the number of days needed to complete the same work by 15 persons is:

8
