25 labourers are employed to complete a task in 8 days. How many more labourers are required to complete the task in 5 days?

$\large{\underline{\texttt{Answer:}}}$

• 25 labour complete work in 8 days!

Let the number of labour be $\bold{x}$ which completes work in 5 days.

$\bold{\mathtt{5x\:=\:8×25}}$

$\bold{\mathtt{x\:=\:8×25÷5}}$

$\bold{\mathtt{x\:=\:40}}$

So, 40 labours are required to complete work in 5 days.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

25 labour complete work in 8 days!

Let the number of labour be \bold{x}x which completes work in 5 days.

\bold{\mathtt{5x\:=\:8×25}}5x=8×25

\bold{\mathtt{x\:=\:8×25÷5}}x=8×25÷5

\bold{\mathtt{x\:=\:40}}x=40

So, 40 labours are required to complete work in 5 days.
