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>

A father is now twice as old as his son. If the sum of their ages ten years ago was fifty two, how old are they today?​
Oliga [24]

Answer:

24 and 48

Today, the son is 24 years old, and the father is 48 years old.  

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 10) + (2x - 10) = 52

3x + 20 = 52

3x = 72

x = 24

The father is 2 times his son's age.

2x

= 2(24)

= 48

So, the son is 24 and the father is 48.

10 years ago, son was 14 and father was 38, if added, this adds up to 52, so we know our calculations are correct.
