If 4 people can paint fences in 5 hours, this means that the rate of painting is 1 fence per person every 5 hours. Therefore, 4 people can paint 4 fences in 5 hours. To find out how many hours it will take for 8 people to paint the same number of fences, we can use the concept of inverse variation. Since the number of people has doubled (from 4 to 8), the number of hours needed will be halved. So, it will take 2.5 hours for 8 people to paint the same number of fences.
5400/115 = just under 47 hours, assuming you don't need any sleep!
8 hours...think of it as a ratio: 5/10=4/?

Multiply 3 and 5 to get a Least Common Multiple. 15. So you find how many rooms can Alvin paint in 15 hours (5 rooms). Same with Bernie (3 rooms). That means they can paint 8 rooms in 15 hours. Since you want to find "how long it would take," you flip the rate over. In 15 hours they can paint 8 rooms. Reduce if you want, 15/8= 1.875 hour to paint one room.
