Twelve men can do a work in twenty days while twenty women can finish the same work in sixteen days. Find the ratio between the capacity of a man and a woman.

A. 3:4
B. 5:4
C. 4:3
D. 5:3
Part of work completed by a man in a day = 1/(12*20)
= 1/240 Part of work completed by a woman in a day = 1/(20*16) = 1/320 Ratio of their capacities
= (1/240):(1/320) = 320:240 = 4:3
