Question

Rohan can paint 1/3 of a painting in 6 days. How many days will he take to complete the painting ?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

If Rohan can paint 1/3 of a painting in 6 days, that would mean he would take triple the time to paint all of the painting.

If you multiply 6 days by 3 you get 18 days

Answer 2

Given that,

Rohan can paint 1/3 of painting in 6 days.

To find,

How many days will he take to complete the painting?

Solution,

Rohan can paint 1/3 of painting in 6 days. 1/3 is a fraction that shows one out of three parts.  

For 1/3 part = 6 days

If we multiply both sides by 3, then,

$\dfrac{1}{3}\times 3=6\times 3\\\\1\ \text{part}=18\ \text{days}$

So, for 1 part or to complete the painting, it will take 18 days.
