N1 x D1 = N2 x D2
\n" ); document.write( "Where N1 and N2 are the number of mens & D1 and D2 are the number of days.
\n" ); document.write( "N1 = 6, D1 = 5, N2 = ?, D2 = 3
\n" ); document.write( "Put N2 = X
\n" ); document.write( "N1 x D1 = X x D2
\n" ); document.write( "X = (N1 x D1)/ D2
\n" ); document.write( "X = (6 x 5 )/ 3
\n" ); document.write( "X= 10 people needed
\n" ); document.write( "So no of people hired = 10-6 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "
