Question 433864
The time required to assemble computers varies directly as the number of computers assembled and inversely as the number of workers.
 If 30 computers can be assembled by 6 workers in 10 hours, how long would it take 5 workers to assemble 40 computers?
:
Find how many man-hours required to assemble 1 computer:
{{{(6*10)/30}}} = 2 man-hrs
:
let h = no. of hrs for 5 workers to assemble 40 computers
5h = 40*2
h = {{{80/5}}}
h = 16 hrs for 5 workers to assemble 40 computers
