Answer 2

Given:

Total number of men = 25

Total days = 20

To find:

In how many days 5 men can complete the work

Solution:

Using the formula of work -

W = m × d

m1 × d1 = m2 × d2

Where -

m1 = Initial men

d1 = Initial days

m2 = Final men

d2 = Final days

Thus,

25 × 20 = 5 × d2

d2 = 25 × 20/5

d2 = 5 × 20

= 100

Answer: In hundred days five men can finish the work.
