To find out how many people are needed to dig the ditch in 12 days, we first calculate the total work needed in terms of person-days. The total work is 7 people × 8 days = 56 person-days. If the ditch needs to be dug in 12 days, we divide the total work by the number of days: 56 person-days ÷ 12 days = approximately 4.67 people. Since you can't have a fraction of a person, you would need at least 5 people to complete the work in 12 days.
Each person averages 1/56th of a ditch (0.01786) per day. *It would take 112 people to complete the ditch in half a day.*
If 7 people can dig a ditch in 8 days, that means the total work required is 7 people × 8 days = 56 person-days. To determine how many people are needed to complete the task in half a day (0.5 days), you would divide the total person-days by 0.5 days: 56 person-days ÷ 0.5 days = 112 people. Therefore, it would take 112 people to dig the ditch in half a day.
To find out how many people it would take to dig the ditch in half a day, we first calculate the total amount of work in "person-days." If 7 people can complete the work in 8 days, that amounts to 7 people × 8 days = 56 person-days. To complete the work in half a day, you would need 56 person-days ÷ 0.5 days = 112 people. Therefore, it would take 112 people to dig the ditch in half a day.
Assuming the linear relationship holds true, it would take 4.67 people to dig the ditch. Since there is no such thing as 0.67 of a person, the answer should be 5 people.
