Question

3 Carpenters take 24 days to make wooden almirah. If the work is to be finished in 6 days . How many Carpenters will be needed

Answer 1

total work= 3X24=72.

No of carpenters required=72/6=12

You could think it in this way-

Work is to be done in 1/4 of the original time, hence 4 times the people will be required.

That is 3X4=12
