Correct Answer: 8
Solution : Given: 12 men can complete a work in 10 days. The total work done is proportional to the number of men and the number of days. $M_1×D_1= M_2×D_2$ ⇒ $12×10=M_2×6$ ⇒ $M_2=20$ To complete the work in 6 days, we need 20 men. Since we already have 12 men, we need $20 - 12 = 8$ more men. Hence, the correct answer is 8.
