If the work rate of one man is represented by 'x' and the work rate of one boy is represented by 'y',
the work rates of 6 men and 8 boys can be represented as
6x + 8y = 1/10.
Similarly, the work rates of 26 men and 48 boys can be represented as
26x + 48y = 1/2.
Solving these equations,
we find that the work rate of one man is 1/100 of the task per day and the work rate of one boy is 1/200 of the task per day.
Therefore, 15 men and 20 boys can complete the task in 4 days
