Question 550734: I've looked for similar examples and haven't been able to transpose the rate of work formulas to figure this one out:
If 5 ppl can produce 64 surfboards in 4 days, how many surfboards can 8 ppl produce in 10 days? Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If 5 ppl can produce 64 surfboards in 4 days, how many surfboards can 8 ppl produce in 10 days?
-----------------
5 ppl * 4 days = 20 ppl-days to make 64 boards --> 3.2 boards/ppl-day
---
8 ppl * 10 days = 80 ppl-days
80*3.2 = 256 boards
