- Let's begin by calculating the total man-hours for the original work scenario.

- Original: 20 people × 15 days × 8 hours = 2400 total man-hours.

- Now, for the new scenario, we need these 2400 total man-hours to be accomplished in 4 days with each person working 10 hours a day.

- We need to find the number of persons (P) where P × 4 days × 10 hours = 2400 man-hours.

- Solving for P:

- P × 40 = 2400

- P = 2400 / 40

- P = 60

- The correct number of persons required is 60.

- Option 2: 60 is the correct answer.
