Assuming that all the men work at the same rate, when the number of men is multiplied by 15/6, the time required will be divided by 15/6. 10/(15/6) = 4 days.

If 7 men can do a certain job in 12 days then how long would it take 6 men to do the same job?

Two people are painting a fence one takes 3 hours to complete the job and one takes 6 hours to complete the same job how long would it take for both to complete the same job -?

It would still take six hours.


A and B can do a work in 6 days. B alone can do in 16 days. After 3 days B withdraws. Then how many days can be needed by A to do the work alone?

-- B can do the job alone in 16 days.-- So B does 1/16 of the job per day.-- In 6 days, B does 6/16 = 3/8 of the job.-- If A and B working together do the job in 6 days, then A does the other 5/8 of the job in 6 days.-- So A does 5/48 of the job each day.-- If they begin together, then after 3 days, A has done 5/16 and B has done 3/16.Together, they've finished 8/16 = 1/2 of the job. Not so surprising, when we recallthat it takes them 6 days to do the whole thing together.-- Half of the job then remains for A to finish on his own. Since he does 5/48 per day,he needs 24/5 = 4.8 days to finish off the last half.4.8 more days


If it takes 10 electricians to get the job done in 6 hours how many electrician will it take to complete the job in 4 hours?

It should take 15 electricians provided that two unlikely conditions are satisfied:all electricians work at exactly the same rate, andthe job contains no parts which are time-dependent. For example, if an instalment must be tested for 5 hours, then even infinitely many electricians will not do the job in 4 hours.

Working together A and B finish work in 16 days.If A does twice the work B does how many days does A take to finish the work alone?

The whole job takes 16 days.If you carve up the job into 48 pieces, then (48/16) = 3 pieces were done each day,of which 'A' did 2 pieces and 'B' did 1 piece.Since 'A' does 2 pieces of work a day, and a whole job consists of 48 pieces,it takes him (48/2) = 24 days to do the whole job alone.
