Question

It takes 3 artists 24 days to paint a building. Calculate how long it will take 6 artists to paint the building if they work at the same rate

Answer 1

You just have to multiply it. Double it. Because you have three artists who took 24 days and now you have 6 artists to paint a building at the same rate. All you need to do is double it.

Answer 2

This is an inverse relation, not a direct proportion
i.e. the more artists, the lesser the time


"It takes 3 artists 24 days to paint a building" ---> 72 artist-days

for 72 artist-days / 6 artists = 12 days

Answer 3

It takes three artists 24 days to paient a building calculate how long it will take six artistes to paient the building if they work at the same rate.
