The Code of Hammurabi is a well-preserved Babylonian code of law of ancient Mesopotamia, dating back to about 1754 BC (Middle Chronology). It is one of the oldest deciphered writings of significant length in the world. The sixth Babylonian king, Hammurabi, enacted the code, and partial copies exist on a 2.25 metre (7.5 ft) stone stele and consists of 282 laws, with scaled punishments, adjusting "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" (lex talionis)[1] as graded depending on social status, of slave versus free man or woman.[2]

nalin [4]

assuming efficiency of each man to dig trench, in one day, for one hour is constant,

e=\frac{180}{4\times6\times5}=\frac{3}{2}

so one man, working for one hour in one day can dig 1.5 m

so 8 men, working 3 hours a day and will take, say $d$ number of days and efficiency will be constant. so,

$\frac32=\frac{220}{8\times3\times d}$

$\implies d=\frac{55}9=6.12$

masya89 [10]

USA intervened in Korea and Vietnam as war efforts and in Greece and Turkey as coups.

Explanation:

In Turkey the US government aided a coup by the military to overthrow the government which in turn led to a regressive government to be placed in there.

A similar thing happened in Greece when a socialist party was elected into the Country with affiliations or alleged ones with the Soviet Union.

Korea was invaded by the USA in support of the south during the Korean war so as to stop the communist North from taking over all of the Korea under the influence of USSR.

Similar thing happened in Vietnam but it was not successful and Vietnam did fall to the communist army after US departure.
