day.How many hour a day should 40 men work to complete the
job? (a) 8 hrs (b) 7 1/2 hrs (c) 7 hrs (d) 9 hrs

Answer Posted / nimo

i believe that 30 men ---20days
9 hr/day

40 men--- 20 days
x hr/day

there fore 30*9 = 40*x
x= 6.75 which is more like 6 hrs 75 mins
which is not applicable , therefore
its 7 hrs 15 mins ( 7 1/2 app ) to
be in the safe side.
