A Correct answer
Explanation

From the given information, 3 men's work = 6 women's work, so 1 man = 2 women. The total work is 3 × 16 = 48 man-days. Converting 8 men and 8 women to men: 8 men + 4 men = 12 men total. Days needed = 48/12 = 4 days. The key is converting women to equivalent men using the rate relationship.
