Question

16 workers can finish a piece of work in 52 days.how many days will 13 workers take to finish this work

Answer 1

let the work done be ' 1 '

let M1, M2 are the workers and D1 ,D2 are the days .

W1 ,W2 is work done . since the work done is same ,so then , W1 = W2 = 1

M1 = 16 , D1 = 52 , W1 = W2 = 1

M2 =13 ,D2 =?

now , according to the formula ,

M1 D1 W2 = M2 D2 W1

16 × 52 × 1 = 13 × D2 × 1

D2 = 16 × 52 / 13

D2 = 64 days

therefore , 13 workers will finish the same work in 64 days .
