Question 414469
Ho long will it take 6 workers to complete a task, give that 7 workers can complete the same task in 12 days
-------
# of workers and time to complete the task are indirectly related.
t = k/# of men
---
Solve for "k" using "7 workers can complete the task in 12 days":
12 =  k/7
k = 84
----
Equation:
t = 84/# of men
----
Solve "How long will it take 6 workers to complete the task?"
t = 84/6
time = 14 days
