<span>An electrician can wire a house in ------------> 20 hours
so
100%----------------> 20 hours
 X-------------------> 12 hour
x=12*100/20----> x=60%

that means 
</span><span>the apprentice in 12 hours complete the (100-60)----> 40%

</span>the apprentice in 12 hours complete -------> 40%
x hours------------------------------------> 100%
x=100*12/40-----> x=30 hours
