Answer 2

Given,

5 men do work in 20 days.

To Find,

How many men can finish the work in 1 day? ​

Solution,

We can solve the question as follows:

It is given that 5 men do work in 20 days. We have to find how many men can finish the work in 1 day.

$5\: men\: can\: do\: the\: work\: in = 20\: days$

The given values are in inverse proportion as when one value increases, the other decreases. If there are more men, the work will be finished in a lesser amount of time.

Now,

If 5 men can do the work in 20 days, then the number of men required to finish the work in 1 day will be equal to 5 multiplied by 20.

$Men\: who\: can\: finish\: the\: work\: in\: 1\: day = 5*20 = 100\: men$

Hence, 100 men can finish the work in 1 day.
