Answer:

"28 Men"

28 More Men will be required to complete the double the work in 16 days

14 men can complete a piece of work in 24 days.

It means to complete the work man days required are:

14men×24days=336 men days.

Now Double the work has to be completed in 16 days.

It means total man days will be= 2×336 Man days

= 672 Men days

No of men required to complete this work in 16 days.

= 672 men days/16 days

42men-14men=28men

28 additional workers will be required to complete double the work in 16 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total work is done by 14 men in 24 days.

To find: The number of additional men needed to do the work in 16 days

Solution:

The work days attended by 14 men= 14×24 =336 men days

Double the work is to be done in 16 days = 2×336

= 672men days

Now, we can calculate the number of men required to do the work in 16days= 672÷16

=42

Since 14 workers are already working, the extra men needed =42-16

= 28 men

Result:

28 additional men will be required to complete double the work in 16 days.
