1. After working 8 days, the team of 16 workers completes one half of the job; hence, one half of the job remains to do. 2. If 14 workers complete the job in 16 days, then 14 workers would complete the remaining half of the job in 8 days. Since the requirement is to complete the remaining half of the job in 4 days, 28 workers are needed for it, in all. 3. Hence, 28-14 = 14 additional workers should be employed.
