5 masons can build a house in 120 days. How many masons will be required to build the same house in 75 days?
Answer: 8
Explanation
5 masons can build a house in 120 days.
This means the total work required to build the house is:
5 masons × 120 days = 600 mason-days
To build the same house in 75 days, the total work required remains the same (600 mason-days).
Let's divide the total work by the new timeframe:
600 mason-days ÷ 75 days = 8 masons
