Question 769627
A construction project must be completed in 15 days. Twenty-five workers did one-half of the job in 10 days. How many workers are needed to complete the job on schedule?
---------------
# of workers and # of days are inversely related.
----
Note:: "The job" is really (1/2) of the job.
----
n = k/d
--------
25 = k/10
---
k = 250
-----
Equation: 
n = 250/d
n = 250/5
n = 50  (# of workers to complete 1/2 the job in 5 days)
