This was a previous incorrect answer*DIVIDE BY 2! everything is in half. half the people half the houses then it stands to reason HALF THE DAYS!!!!! the answer is 60*.....Actually the correct answer is 120 days. You must analyze the relationship of people per house (10 people build 60 houses=6 houses per person over time span). To prove this just imagine if the question asked how long 1 person would take to build 6 houses. You would not simply divide by 10 to get 12 days.
