If 6men take 5 days to complete a job.how long would the same job take 15 men?
:
Find how many man-days required to complete the job.
6*5 = 30 man-days
:
Find how many days for 15 men to do the same job
30/15 = 2 days
:
Check this by finding the the man-days again
15 * 2 = 30 man-days, which we agreed would complete the job
