Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the hours taken to complete the work by 12 employees we x.

This is case of Inverse Variation as if the number of employees increases then the time taken decreases.

Therefore we can say that xy=k

8×96=12x

768=12x

768/12=x

64=x

So, 12 employees will finish the project in 64 hours.
