Eight workers can build a cabin in 60 hours. How many workers are needed if the cabin is to be built in 32 hours?

Since we are given no information to the contrary, the following discussion assumes that all men are created equal, and every worker accomplishes the same amount of work in the same amount of time. Since 8 workers can build a cabin in 60 hours, the job comprises (8 man) times (60 hours) = 480 man-hours of labor. That doesn't change. Now however, 480 man-hours of labor must be completed in 32 hours. The number of workers required to accomplish this is (480 man-hours) divided by (32 hours) = 15 man.


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?

My somewhat educated guess would be two hours. The person who could complete the job in 3 hours could complete 2/3 of the job in two hours. The person that complete the job in 6 hours could complete 1/3 of the job in two hours. 2/3 + 1/3 = 1.


The what indicates an action that will have been completed before another action takes place?

The term "future perfect" indicates an action that will have been completed before another action takes place. It is formed using "will have" followed by the past participle of the verb. For example, in the sentence "By next year, I will have graduated before my sister starts college," the future perfect tense illustrates the completion of graduation prior to the sister's college start.


How old would the age eight be on Saturn?

Saturn takes 29 earth years for one orbit, so someone who has reach 8 years on earth (ie orbited the sun 8 times on earth) would be 8/29 ≈ 0.28 years old on Saturn, ie they would have completed about 0.28 of one orbit of Saturn around the sun. As Saturn takes about 24491 Saturn days to complete one orbit of the sun they would be 8/29 × 24491 ≈ 6756 Saturn days old compared to the 365.25 × 8 = 2922 Earth days they are.


If 6 men can do a piece of work in 14 days how many men are needed to do the work in 21 days?

Using logic, if it takes 14 days for 6 men to complete the task, then it would take 3 men 28 days. Continuing it would take one man84 days (3 x 28) to complete. So, now moving backwards, it would take 2 men 42 days (half of the 84) and 4 en 21 days (half of 42)
