45 men work to complete it in 7 days?
Answers
Answer:
5.25 hours per day
Step-by-step explanation:
19 men take 21 days working 7.5 hours per day.
Hours per day 45 men will take to complete in 7 days will be:
if 19 men =7.5 hours
then 45 men = 5.4 hours ( this because the 45 men will take less hours per day, hence you use the lesser fraction of the two
values .)
If 21 days = 7.5 hours per day
then 7 days= 21/7
Therefore the calculation is = 7.5×5.4×21/7
= (7×5×21 )/(5×4×7)
= 735/140
= 5.25 hours per day !!
