we have that

four people, five hours a day, six days

that represents

each people works-----> 30 hours in six days (5*6)

each people can do ----> 25% of the work (100%/4)

Divide percentage by the number of hours

25/30=5/6 % by hour

that means

Each people can do (5/6)% by hour

two people working for seven hours a day--------> represents 14 hours a day

Multiply 14 hours by (5/6)

14*(5/6)=11.67%

that means

two people in one day can do 11.67% of the work

Applying proportion

1/11.67%=x/100%

solve for x

x=100/11.67

x=8.6 days------> Round up

<h2>the answer is 9 days</h2>

Round 478.54 to the nearest tenth
Schach [20]
A tenth is the number that occurs after the decimal
If the number after the tenth is five or higher, then you round up
If the number after the tenth if four or lower, then the tenth stays the same value as it is
In this case, the Ume after the tenth is exactly four, so the value of the tenth stays the same
So your answer is 478.5
