Answer 1

Answer:

One worker have put 7.5 hours of work each day

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 23 workers put in $\frac{1725}{2}$ hours of work for 5 days

Now, 23 workers 5 days work $=\frac{1725}{2}\hspace{0.1cm}hours$

Thus, 23 workers 1 day work $= \frac{\frac{1725}{2}}{5} = \frac{1725}{2 \times 5} = \frac{345}{2}\hspace{0.1cm}hours$

1 worker 1 day work $=\frac{\frac{345}{2}}{23} = \frac{345}{2 \times 23} = \frac{15}{2} = 7.5\hspace hours$
