time and # of painters are inversely related:
\n" ); document.write( "t = k/p
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"k\" using \" 6 painters take 15 days to paint the school\"
\n" ); document.write( "15 = k/6
\n" ); document.write( "k = 90
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "t = 90/p
\n" ); document.write( "How long will it take 10 painters to paint a school.??
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "t = 90/10
\n" ); document.write( "---
