Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
M1 = 4
D1 = 6
M2 = 6
D2 = x (we've to find this)
<u><em>Since, it is an inverse proportion (more man takes less days for the work to complete and vice versa), so we'll write it in the form of</em></u>
M1 : M2 = D2 : D1
4 : 6 = x : 6
<u>Product of Means = Product of Extremes</u>
=> 6x = 4*6
=> 6x = 24
Dividing both sides by 6
=> x = 4 days

Answer:
After 33 weeks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w be number of weeks.
We have been given that Gina opened a bank account with $40. She plans to add $20 per week to the account and not make any withdrawals. So the balance after w weeks will be 20w+40.
To figure out number of weeks Gina will have exactly $700 in her account, we will equate the balance after w weeks to 700.
Let us subtract 40 from both sides of equation.
Upon Dividing both sides of our equation by 20 we will get,
Therefore, after 33 weeks Gina will have exactly $700 in her account, excluding interest.
