Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of men be x.
=> 12 × 20 = x × 15

=> x = 240/15
=> x = 16
Therefore, 16 men will complete the job in 15 days.

Answer:
It would take 16 days. You can’t use proportions because 12 men finishing something in 20 days is not equal to 6 men finishing in 10 days. How you would calculate this is by doing 12 men times 20 days. You’re answer is 240.
For the 15 men, take 240/15 and you will get 16. To prove this correctly let’s say there are 240 parts of the project and each guy can do 1 per day. 12 men would take 20 days and 15 men would take 16 days.
