Correct Option - 3
Detailed Solution:

(c):We have 4 men = 5 women 1 man = 5 4 women, 2 women = 4 boys, 1 women = 2 boys 5 4  women = 2 * 5 4  boys = 5 2  or 1 man = 5 4 women = 3 2  boys

Now 2M + 3W+ 4B = 2 * B + 3 * 2B + 4B = 15 B Boys

Or 15 Boys do the work in 10 days (10 hectares) 6M + 4W + 7B = (6 * + 4 * 2 + 7) B = 30

Boys 30 boys will do 16

It's difficult but in some colleges you may can get 

  a + 5 b  is collinear with c  

  a + 5 b = c           …(1)

b + 6 c is collinear with a  

⇒   b + 6 c = μ a               …(2)

From (1) and (2)

  b + 6 c = μ ( λ c 5 b )          

-> ( 1 + 5 μ ) b + ( 6 λ μ ) c = 0

? b and c
