Answer 2

Given: 48 workers can reap a field in 9 days

To find: The extra number of workers required if the work is to be completed in 6 days

Solution:

Number of workers required if the work is completed in 9 days = 48

Then, number of workers required if the work is completed in 1 day = 48 × 9

Therefore, number of workers required if the work is completed in 6 days

= (48 × 9)/6

= 432/6

= 72

Hence, the extra number of workers required = 72 - 48

                                                                            = 24

Answer: 24
