Answer 1

Let the number of days be d.

Given that 10 people can do a piece of work in 5 days for working 2 hours a day.

We need to find out the number of days taken by 2 people working 5 hours a day to complete a work.


When this type of problems occur, we should use the following formula:

$\frac{m1 * t1}{w1} = \frac{m2 * t2}{w2}$

$\frac{10 * 5 * 2}{1} = \frac{2 * 5 * d}{1}$

100 = 10d

$\frac{100}{10} = d$

d = 10.


Therefore the number of days required = 10.



Hope this helps!
