    @stsundfab....im not dissing you, but i think english is not one of your strongest links. 'Croud', last i checked the dico, it was still spelt crowd...with a 'W'. Writing without punctuations makes a very difficult read. You no holy pass afterall!
    Btw, you should have upgraded yourself to the point of being invited for 'chats' not for 'gbo gbo ero' tests. That's food for thought.

    @Adolaj001
    He that knows not and knows not that he knows not, is a fool.
    u dont have to be a guru or genuis to figure this out. its just common sense. If it takes 9people 12days to do a job, how in hecks name wld it take 1 person less time to do the same job

    Now lets work on this together,
    9people work at a rate of 12days
    1person wld work at a rate of 9*12=108days
    so it wld take 1 person 108days to do the work.
    if 4 people decide to do the work and share it equally, then 4pple would finish the job in 108/4=27days.

    Re: Hw much do u knw maths?

    This is the solution:
    if 9 persons used 12 days
    1 person will : (12 x 9) days
    4 persons will : (12 x 9)/4 = 27 days

    12 days for 9 persons
    1 day : (9 x 12) persons
    3 days : (9 x 12)/3 = 36 persons

    Re: Hw much do u knw maths?

    There is a simple way for solving such arithmetic without thinking much. I learned this method when I was in Primary 6. I will start by giving a more complex example

    If 30 Men can clear 45 Plots of Land in 5 Days. How many Men can clear 15 Plots of Land in 25 Days

    Arrange your Parameter as Follows

    Men Plots Days
    30 45 15
    ? 90 10

    More Plot More Men = 90/45
    Less Days More Men = 15/10

    Answer = 30 * 90/45 *15/10
    = 90 Men

    Bring it to the Current Question
    If 9 persons finishd a job in 12 days,
    (i) hw many days wil it take 4 persons working at the same rate to finish d job.
    (ii) hw many persons wil be required to finish dsame piece of wrk in 3 days. Pls show ur workings
    (i)
    Persons Days
    9 12
    4 ?

    Less Person More Days = 9/4
    Answer = 12 * 9/4
    = 27 Days
    (ii)
    Persons Days
    9 12
    ? 3

    Less Days More Person = 12/3
    Answer = 9 * 12/3
    = 36 Persons

    Case Closed

    if 9prsns=12days dont jst jmp to say 1 persn =108 days. say 1 prsn=x days

    i.e. 9prsns=12days
    1 prsn=x days
    x=4/3 for 1 prsn

    4pple= 4*4/3 good night
