IMO : C
1c = 3 beds
5c = 15 bed
no' of beds required = 142/2 +1 = 72
no' of days in advance = 72/5 = 5 (whole days)

If two soldiers sleep on one bunk bed, school needs 143/2= 72 bunk beds.
1 carpenter can make 3 beds and 5 carpenters can make 15 beds/day.
15 beds will be ready in 1 day, so to have 72 beds ready, carpenters require 72/15 = 5 (closest integer) days
C is the answer
