The Number of men required is 160 Explanation: Let no. of men = m1 = 10 Let no. of days required = d1 = 8 Let no. of men required to finish the work in 1/2 days = m2 Let no of days required for m2 men = 1/2 Now we have to find the no. of men required to complete the work in 1/2 day so the calculation will be, m1d1 = m2d2 (10)(8) = m2(1/2) 80 = m2(1/2) [ By taking the dividend 2 left side it will go into multiple ] 80 x 2 = m2 160 = m2 Therefore, Number of men required to finish the work in 1/2 day is **160 men**

If a "certain number of men" less 10 takes 20 days (twice as long) to finish the piece of work, then the "certain number of men" who can finish the work in 10 days would 20. If it takes 10 men less twice as long to do the work, then twice 10 men (20) can finish the job in 10 days.

How many days are in 7000000 man hours?

That depends on how many men there are. If there is 1 man, then he does 7,000,000 man-hours of work in 7,000,000 hours, or about 798 years of continuous work. If there are 1,000 men, then they do 7,000,000 man-hours of work in 7,000 hours, or about 292 days of continuous work. If there are 100,000 men, then they do 7,000,000 man-hours of work in 70 hours, or about 2.917 days of continuous work. The problem we have with this question is that a "man-hour" is not a unit of time.
