15 seconds. Yeah! That's the time it will take for me to beat u up and throw u out of this forum.

Abeg poster,dnt do ths 2me again.Kai,u r 2funny.

Let me just try....
Solution:
(i) 4 persons.
1 person=9*12=108
4 persons=108/4=27 days.

(ii) 3 days.
1 day=9*12=108
3 days=108/3
=36 persons.

@acason u ar too much. Thanks

We all should take life easy. We cannot kill ourselves over job hunting or trying to solve a problem we don't know how to.

@Fed
Now I understand ur motive, hope u didn't take offense. The thing is that I read this bcos I love maths but the question was a disappointment, coz it's more of simple logic than mathematics.

i love this. seems so simple yet brain teasing. also took me some time to figure it out.
Fedponek is right, its just one of those aptitude questions one could see @ interviews.

U r 2much.Nobody could think it was just an ordinary maths.Its really a brain test.
