If five workers can clean a stadium after a baseball game in four hours, how long would it take three workers to clean the same stadium?
----------
It's commonly called man-hours, tho they might be some women and kids.
-----
5 men * 4 hours = 20 man-hours to do the job.
20 man-hrs/3 men = 20/3 hours.
