19 men working 15/2 hours a day can finish a job in 21 days . how many hours a day must 45 men work to complete it in 7 days |
|
Answer» Answer: 19 men take 21 days working 15/2 hours per day. Hours per day 45 men will take to complete in 7 days will be: if 19 men = 15/2 hours then 45 men = 19/45 hours ( this because the 45 men will take less hours per day, hence you use the lesser FRACTION of the two values) if 21 days = 15/2 hours per day then 7 days= 21/7 (this because the hours required will be more, hence you use the larger fraction of the two values) therefore the calculation is = 15/2 x 19/45 x 21/7 = (15x19x21)/(2x45x7)
= 19/2 = 9.5 hours per day hope..it..HELPS..... mark,,,me..BRAINLIEST.. |
