Question:

If 5 persons can prepare 5 tables in 5 days, then how long will it take 25 persons to prepare 25 tables?

Options:

25 days

15 days

20 days

5 days

Correct Answer:

5 days

Explanation:

Formula to be used here,

\(\frac{M_1\;×\;D_1}{M_2\;×\;D_2}\) = \(\frac{W_1}{W_2}\)

where, M = No. of men, D = No. of Days, W = Units of work,

⇒ \(\frac{5\;×\;5}{25\;×\;D_2}\) = \(\frac{5}{5}\)

⇒ \( { D}_{2 } \) = 5 days.
