If 3 men can dig 6 trenches in 4 days how many days would it take for 4 men to dig 24 trenches?
3 men dig 6 trenches in 4 days==> each man digs (6/3) = 2 trenches in 4 days==> each man digs (4/2) = 1/2 trench per day.==> Given 4 men, you get (4 x 1/2) = 2 trenches per day.==> It takes them (24/2) = 12 days to dig 24 trenches.

In World War 1 what was the depth of trenches?
Trenches would be about 9ft deep and up to 6 ft wide. These trenches weren't that big considering that hundreds of soldiers would be there waiting for the moment in which they were attacked or when they would attack. These trenches would offer cover against bombs and grenades but wouldn't be a safe place to be when it came to the gas that the enemy's would throw at each other. The gas would settle in these trenches for hours or even days before going away.
What is a reserve trench?
Reserve trenches were used as supplies for the trenches out the front. In world war one, they had come up with a technique of hiding in trenches before they fight. To do this properly, they had made them zig-zags. The trenches on the front line were where the soldiers would fight from. Reserve trenches were used in case these people had anything happen to them and they needed to use more trenches and more men. Throughout the war, the conditions of the front line trenches became worse as the communication and reserve trenches improved. I hope that helped :)
What killed many men on the first day in the trenches?

Was the trenches significant in the war?
The trenches allowed men to be protected while fighting in the war. Being out of sight from the opposing country significantly increased their chances of surviving. The trenches were also designed focusing on air shooting. This meant they created a design that would also protect them from a plane shooting at them. Without the trenches all of the men would have been killed, and they wouldn't have been given a chance to fight. so yes. the trenches were VERY significant in the war.
