A. $$\frac{{{{\text{p}}^{\text{2}}}}}{{{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}}}$$

B. $$\frac{{{{\text{p}}^{\text{3}}}}}{{{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}}}$$

C. $$\frac{{{{\text{n}}^{\text{2}}}}}{{{{\text{p}}^{\text{2}}}}}$$

D. $$\frac{{{{\text{n}}^{\text{3}}}}}{{{{\text{p}}^{\text{2}}}}}$$

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Applying formula
Let work done by 'n' men and women
$$\frac{{{{\text{p}}_{{\text{men}}}} \times {{\text{p}}_{{\text{hours}}}} \times {{\text{p}}_{{\text{days}}}}}}{{{{\text{p}}_{{\text{units}}}}}} = $$     $$\frac{{{{\text{n}}_{{\text{men}}}} \times {{\text{n}}_{{\text{hours}}}} \times {{\text{n}}_{{\text{days}}}}}}{{{{\text{W}}_{{\text{units}}}}}}$$
$$\eqalign{ & \Leftrightarrow {{\text{p}}^{\text{2}}} = \frac{{{{\text{n}}^{\text{3}}}}}{{\text{w}}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {\text{W}} = \frac{{{{\text{n}}^{\text{3}}}}}{{{{\text{p}}^{\text{2}}}}} \cr} $$
