how many machines will it take to complete a task in 3 days, considering it takes 10 days for 6 machines to complete the same tasks?
----------
# of machines and # of days are inversely related::
m = k/d
Solve for "k"::
6 = k/10
k = 60
-----
Equation:
m = 60/d
m = 60/3
-----
# of machines = 20 to complete the the task in 3 days
