If 4 people can paint fences in 5 hours, this means that the rate of painting is 1 fence per person every 5 hours. Therefore, 4 people can paint 4 fences in 5 hours. To find out how many hours it will take for 8 people to paint the same number of fences, we can use the concept of inverse variation. Since the number of people has doubled (from 4 to 8), the number of hours needed will be halved. So, it will take 2.5 hours for 8 people to paint the same number of fences.
