If a piece of work could be completed in 24 days by 98 men how many men would it take to complete it in 21 days
----------------
The size of a job or project is often given in man-hours or man-days, the product of # of men * # of days
-----------
24*98 = 2352 man-days
---
2352 man-days/21 days = 112 men
