Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of workers and the time taken to complete the work are inversely proportional. In inverse proportion, the product remains constant.
Let the number of workers removed be x.
=> 45 × 12 = (45-x) × (12+6)
=> 45 × 12 = (45-x) × 18
=> 45×12/18 = 45-x
=> 30 = 45-x
=> x = 45 - 30
=> x = 15
Therefore, 15 workers should be removed so that it takes 6 more days to complete the work.
