Answer:

4 days

Step-by-step explanation:

If 8 machines can complete a task in 7 days, how long will 14 machines take?

So, it is obvious that if the number of machines increases, the number of days taken to complete the task decreases; thus proving that this is an indirect / inverse proportion.

Let's take <em>x</em> as the number of days we need to find out.

 8 machines : 7 days

14 machines : <em>x</em> days

14 × <em>x </em>= 8 × 7

14<em>x </em>= 56

x = \frac{56}{14}

x = 4
