If 80 men dug 4 holes in 12 months, how many men would be required to build 6 houses in months?
Explanation
1/240 * n * 4 = 6 becomes:
1/240 * 360 * 4 = 6
we simplify to get:
6 = 6 confirming that our calculation of the number of people required is good.
the answer is that it would require 360 men to fill 6 holes in 4 months.
