Answer 2

4 people are needed to make 12 bicycles in 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we can write the problem as follows:

Refer to the attached image for this part.

Now,

2 bicycles are made in 2 hours by 2 people

∴ 1 bicycle can be made in 2 hours by $\dfrac{2}{2}$ people

∴ 1 bicycle can be made in 1 hour by $(\dfrac{2}{2}\times 2)$ people

∴ 12 bicycles can be made in 1 hour by $(\dfrac{2}{2}\times 2\times 12)$ people

∴ 12 bicycles can be made in 6 hours by $(\dfrac{2}{2}\times 2\times 12\times\dfrac{1}{6})$ people = 4 people

Therefore 4 people are needed to make 12 bicycles in 6 hours.
