Ans.2)30
Use hit and trial method
Since in first 3days total work done=(3*30)=90
Rmng=270-90=180
Now work done per day is increased by 8mts so 30+8=38 mts will be work done from now. And also mentioned that work done before the last day is 280 mts so 10mts will be added to 180
i.e 190 work will be completed in 5 days therefore ans is 30mts..
