Answer:

Time taken for 20 peoples to paint 20 walls = 53 minutes

It’s takes 53 minutes for 6 people to paint 6 walls.


\texttt{Time taken for a guy to paint 6 walls =}53* 6=318minutes\\\\\texttt{Time taken for a guy to paint 1 wall =}(318)/(6)=53minutes

\texttt{Time taken for a guy to paint 20 walls =}53* 20=1060minutes\\\\\texttt{Time taken for 20 peoples to paint 20 walls =}(1060)/(20)=53minutes

Time taken for 20 peoples to paint 20 walls = 53 minutes
