The answer is 1/3 is the answer.
Answer:
First statement: 10 road workers take 5 days to complete a work, working 2 hours a day.
Let us calculate how many days 2 workers will need, if they were to work at the same pace (i.e. each working 2 hours a day). The workforce is now decreased to 2 divided by 10 = 1/5 (i.e. one-fifth).
Therefore proportionately, the time will increase to 5 days divided by 1/5, (i.e. 5 / (1/5) = 25 days.
We now know that 2 workers will need 25 days to finish the work, if they work for 2 hors a day.
Now the question is what will happen if the two people work 5 hours per day, instead of 2 hours per day?
The labor they put in has increased to 5 divided by 2 = 2.5 (i.e. 2 and half times).
Consequently, the time needed to finish the work will decrease to 25 divided by 2.5 (i.e. ( 25 / 2.5 ) = 10. days.
The answer : 10 Days.

Answer:
Adult=1,385.71
Children=814.29
Approximately
Adult=1386
Children=814
Step-by-step explanation:
c= number of children
a= number of adults
Admission fee for children=$4.50
Admission fee for adults=$8.00
Total attendees=2200
Total amount realized=$5050
We need two equations to solve the two unknowns
c + a=2200 (1)
4.50c + 8.00a=5,050 (2)
From (1)
c + a=2200
c=2200 - a
Substitute c=2200 - a into (2)
4.50c + 8.00a=5,050
4.50(2200 - a) + 8.00a=5050
9900 - 4.50a +8.00a=5050
Collect like terms
9900-5050= -4.50a+8.00a
4,850=3.5a
Divide both sides by 3.5
1,385.71=a
Substitute a=1,385,71 into (1)
c + a=2200
c+1385.71=2200
c=2200-1385.71
=814.29
c=814.29
