# Worker's performance

15 workers paint 180 m fence in 3 days. In how many days will 9 workers paint a 360 m fence? We assume that each worker have the same, constant and unchangeable performance.

Result

x =  10 d

#### Solution:

$r=180/(3 \cdot \ 15)=4 \ \text{m/d/r} \ \\ l=360 \ \text{m} \ \\ \ \\ x=l/(9 \cdot \ r)=360/(9 \cdot \ 4)=10 \ \text{d}$

Our examples were largely sent or created by pupils and students themselves. Therefore, we would be pleased if you could send us any errors you found, spelling mistakes, or rephasing the example. Thank you!
