Question

6 boys can completea work in 16 days .1 boy can complete the sane work in how many days

Answer 1

6 Boys can complete work in 16 days

Means in 1 day 6 boys can do 1/16 of the work

In 1 day 1 boy can do 1/6 x 1/16 of the work

= 1/96 of the work

So he can complete the work in 96 days

Answer 2

Answer:

96

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of one boy doing the work be x

so work done by one boy in one day will be 1/x

time taken by six boys to complete the work is x/6

work done in one day will be 6/x   [1/(x/6)]

6/x = 1/16 (work done in one day)

x = 16 * 6

x = 96
