Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

☆Question☆

It takes 8 days for 12 men to construct a wall. How many men should be put on the job if it is required to be constructed in 6 days?

☆Understanding first☆

12 mens can finish a work in 8 days . Means 8 days is required to finish a work by 12 men so, If the construction is to be finished in 6 days how many mens is required → ?

☆Given☆

• 8 days is required to finish a construction of wall by 12 men

☆Find☆

• In 6 days total men required to finish the construction of wall

☆Solution☆

We have to use unitary method to solve the following sum so, Let's see

• To construct a wall in 8 days , 12 mens are required to finish it.
• To construct a wall in 1 days , 12 × 8 mens are required to finish it.

$\rightarrow \bull \sf \: To \: construct \: a \: wall \: in \: \bf6 \: days \: , \cancel\dfrac{12 \times 8}{6} = 2 \times 8 \rightarrow16 \: days \: mens \: are \: required \: to \: finish \: it.$

$\therefore \sf \bf \: 16 \: mens \: are \: required \: to \: finish \: a \: work \: in \: 6 \: days$
