No.of labourers required to harvest the field in 7 days= (8X56) divided by 7

Answer 2

As per the data given in the above question.

It is given that 56 laborer's can harvest a field in 8 days.

 We have to find how many laborer's are required to harvest the field in 7 days,

Let be the labor required be x,

The work done will be the same for both case,

$56\times 8=7\times x\\448=7x$

shifting constant to one side we get,

$x=\frac{448}{7} \\x=64$

Hence 64 laborer's are required to harvest the field in 7 days.
