if 15 men can do a work in 12, days how many men will do the same work in 6 days?
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
M1D1 = M2D2
15 × 12 = M2 × 6
M2 = 15×12/6
M2 = 15×2
m2 =30 men
Given:
15 men can do a certain work in 12 days.
To Find:
How many men are required to complete the same work in 6 days?
Solution:
1. It is mentioned a total of 12 days will be taken by 15 men to complete a certain job.
=> 15 men take 12 days to finish a job,
=> 1 man takes a total of 15 x 12 days to finish the same job,
=> Time taken by a single man to finish the same job = 180 days.
2. The total men required to finish the same job in 6 days is,
=> If it takes 180 days to finish a job by a single man then,
=> Total men required for finishing the work in 6 days = 180/6 = 30.
3. A total of 30 men are required to finish the same job in 6 days.
Therefore, 30 men can do the same job in 6 days.
