Question

36 men can compete a piece of work in 18 days in how many days will 27 men compete the same work​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Less Men, means more Days {Indirect Proportion}

Let the number of days be x then,

27 : 36 :: 18 : x

[Please pay attention, we have written 27 : 36 rather than 36 : 27, in indirect proportion, if you get it then chain rule is clear to you :)]

=>27x = 36 * 18

=> x = 24

So 24 days will be required to get work done by 27 men..

Answer 2

Answer:

36 men can complete work in 18 days

so, one man can complete work in 18×36 days

Therefore, 27 can complete work in 18×36/27 = 24 days
