D. 98
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Let the required number of days be xLess men, More days (Indirect proportion)
$$\eqalign{ & \therefore 42:56::24:x \cr & \Leftrightarrow 42 \times x = 56 \times 24 \cr & \Leftrightarrow x = \left( {\frac{{56 \times 24}}{{42}}} \right) \cr & \Leftrightarrow x = 32 \cr} $$
