4 workers are needed to si the qoek

Answer 2

Answer:

50 workers

Step-by-step explanation:

50 men take 200 days to finish. Then:

50 x 200=10,000 man days

50 men start out, and work for 150 days, leaving 10,000-(50 x 150)=10,000–7500

=2500 man-days work

The work is stopped for 25 days, leaving 200–150–25=25 days left to finish on schedule. So:

2500 man-days / 25 days=100 men necessary to finish

Since there are already 50 men employed, the employers need to hire an additional 50 men.
