A  6 

B  8 

C  9 

D  10 

Solution

Correct Answer: Option C

9 examiners 12 days by working = 5 hours 

1  "               1 "       "       "       = 5 \( \times \) 9 \( \times \) 12 hours  

4 "                30 "      "       "      = (5 \( \times \) 9 \( \times \) 12) / (4 \( \times \) 30 ) hours  

So, twice the work need twice time So answer is  4.5 \( \times \) 2 = 9 hours
