12 men complete 1/3 of the work in 8 days.
How many days do they take to complete the entire work:
1/3 = 8 days
1 =?
We use 1 to represent the entire work since fractions when added gives a whole number.
1 × 3/1 × 8 = 24 days
12 men take 24 days to complete the work
16 men will take how long:
12 : 24
16 :?
12/16 × 24
12/16 × 24 = 18 days
