Question

6.
(i) Three men do a job in 8 days. How long will 4 men take to finish the job?
(ii) Fifteen workers can repair a road in 24 days. How long will it take for 9 workers
repair the road?​

Answer 1

Answer:

(i) 6 Days

(ii) 40 Days

Step-by-step explanation:

3 Men take 8 Days to do the job so it would take one man 24 days as there is only 1 man so it would take longer. If there were four men then it would take 6 days and would be 4 times quicker (24 Days/4 Men = 6 Days)

(ii) 15 workers take 24 days to repair a road then it would take 1 man 360 Days as there is only 1 man. If there were 9 men then it would be 9 times quicker. So 360 Days/9 Men = 40 Days
