Question

25 men can finish a piece of work in 16 days. How many men will be needed to finish it in 8
days?​

Answer 1

Hello !

Given:-

• No. of days = 16
• total no. of men who can finish the work in 16days = 25

To find:-

• Total men's who finish the same work in 8days.

Concept:-

• if 25 mens can finish a work in 16 days then we can get an equation as :-
• 25×16.
• To find the no. of men who can finish the same work in 8 days we will get an equation as:-
• $\dfrac{25×16}{8}$

Solution

$\implies$ $\dfrac{25×16}{8}$

$\implies$ $\cancel\dfrac{25×16}{8}$

$\implies$ 25×2= 50

Hence, the no. of men who can finish the same work in 8 days will 50.
