Question

A construction manager needs 12 workers to complete a building project in 54 days. Find in terms of T the number of workers needed to complete the same project in T days

Answer 1

Answer:

2T/9

Step-by-step explanation:

A construction manager needs 12 workers to complete a building project in 54 days, we can write;

12 workers = 54 days

T find the number of workers needed to complete the same project in T days, we will write;

x workers = T days

Divide both equations

12/x = 54/T

Cross multiply

12T = 54x

x = 12T/54

x = 2T/9

Hence the number of workers needed to complete the same project in T days is 2T/9 workers
