Explanation:

if 4 men did the job in 12 days , then each of the 4 men worked for 12 days , which means they worked for 4*12=48 days , so the job takes 48 work days to complete. If all men work at the same rate, then these other 6 will complete the job in


(48)/(6) = 8 (days)/(man)

Therefore, it’ll take the group of 6 men 8 days to complete the job.
