Let’s start by using the formula:
number of men × number of days = constant
We can use this formula to find the constant, which represents the total amount of work to be done:
15 men × 10 days = constant
150 = constant
Now we can use the constant to find the number of men needed to do the same job in 3 days:
number of men × 3 days = 150
number of men = 150 ÷ 3
number of men = 50
Therefore, we need 50 men to do the same job in 3 days. To find how many more men are required, we can subtract the initial number of men from the new number of men:
50 men – 15 men = 35 more men are required.
