Question 1138183: A contractoremploys 119 men to build a factory.After 44days 2/3 of building is
Completed.He then employs 35 more men.How long will it take to complete the work. Answer by greenestamps(13200) (Show Source):
After 44 days, 1/3 of the factory is still to be built. The 119 men could finish the factory in another 22 days.
The number of man-days required to finish building the factory is then 119*22. If 35 more men are hired, then the number of men on the job will be 119+35 = 154; the number of days it will take to finish the job is then
ANSWER: It will take 17 more days to finish building the factory.
