I want process

Answer 1

The Number of days taken by 32 men = 24 days.

The Number of days taken by x men = 16days.

x * 16 = 32 * 24

x = 32 * 24/16

x = 768/16

x = 48.


Therefore 48 men can finish the work in 16 days.


Hope this helps!

Answer 2

it is a direct and inverse qeustion
and it is a inverse variation
so according to the question
$32 \times 24 = 16 \times x \\ 32 \times 24 = 16x \\ \frac{32 \times 24}{16} = x \\ 48 = x$
So 48 men can do this work in 16 days
