99 Workers can do a job in 100 days. How many days will 59 workers take to do the samework?
Let X be the no. of days 59 worker will take to finish the work
worker 99 59
Days 100 X
As decrease in workers will increase no. of days it is a case of inverse variation
Therefore 99*100 = 59* X
or X= 99*100/59 = 9900/59
or X= 167.8 days (Ans)
