If 30 men can plant 1000 trees in 9 days, how many days would it take for 36 men to set out 4400 trees?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Using man/days: 30*9 = 270 man/days to plant 1000 trees.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Then 4.4 * 270 = 1188 man/days to plant 4400 trees.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = number of days for 36 men to plant 4400 trees
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "36x = 1188
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1188/36
\n" ); document.write( "x = 33 days for 36 men to plant 4400 trees
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check our solution doing it another way
\n" ); document.write( " $\"270%2F36x+=+1000%2F4400\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Cross mult
\n" ); document.write( "36x * 1000 = 270*4400
\n" ); document.write( "36000x = 1188000
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1188000/36000
\n" ); document.write( "x = 33 days \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
