(D) Let the number of unmarried women workers be $x$.Total number of children = $16$.Average age of children = $8 	ext{ years}$.Total age of children = $16 	imes 8 = 128 	ext{ years}$.Let the number of women workers be $W = 10 + x$.Average age of women workers = $22 	ext{ years}$.Total age of women workers = $22(10 + x) = 220 + 22x$.Total number of workers = $16 + (10 + x) = 26 + x$.The average age of all workers is $15 	ext{ years}$.Therefore,$\frac{128 + 220 + 22x}{26 + x} = 15$.$348 + 22x = 15(26 + x)$.$348 + 22x = 390 + 15x$.$22x - 15x = 390 - 348$.$7x = 42$.$x = 6$.Thus,the number of unmarried women workers is $6$.
