Question

76 men take 2 months to construct a road , how many more men required to construct the road in 45 days

Answer 1

Solutions :-

Given :
76 men take 2 months to construct a road.

We know that,
1 month = 30 days
2 months = 2 × 30 = 60 days

Let the number of required to construct the road in 45 days be x.

Find the number of men required to construct the road in 45 days :-

=> 76 × 60 = x × 45
=> 4560 = 45x
=> 4560/45 = x = 101.33 (approx.)


More men required = (101 - 76) men = 25 men


Hence,
25 men is required to construct the road in 45 days.

Answer 2

Answer:

25 men

Step By Step Explanation:

Note: 1 month = 30 days

∴ 2 month = 2 × 30 = 60 days.

Now,

∵In 60 days, 76 men are required to construct the road.

∴In 1 day, 76 × 60 men are required to construct the road.

It concludes that:

In 45 days, 76 × 60 / 45 men are required to construct the road.

⇒ 76 × 60 / 45 men

⇒ 4560 / 45 men

⇒ 101 men.

Again,

No. Of more men = 101 - 76

⇒ 25 men.

Hence, The required more men to construct the road in 45 days is 25 men.
