You can put this solution on YOUR website! If it takes 8 men to complete a job
in 8 days, how many days would it take 1 man?
------
# of men and # of days are inversely related:
------
d = k/m
-----
Solve for "k" using "it takes 8 men to complete a job
in 8 days"
----
8 = k/8
k = 64
---------
Equation:
d = 64/m
----
how many days would it take 1 man?
d = 64/1
# of days = 64
