E. None of these
Answer: Option D
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Let the required number of days be x.Less men, More days (Indirect Proportion)
$$\eqalign{ & \therefore 27:36::18:x \cr & \Rightarrow 27 \times x = 36 \times 18 \cr & \Rightarrow x = \frac{{36 \times 18}}{{27}} \cr & \Rightarrow x = 24 \cr} $$
