Answer 1

2 more people each day.

Explanation:

We are given the following relation:

`d = (192)/(n)`

In which d is the number of days that will take to run a marketing campaign with n people.

Alex’s company will take 32 days to run the campaign.

So the number of people in his campaign is given by:

`32 = (192)/(n)`

`32n = 192`

`n = (192)/(32)`

`n = 6`

Shay’s company will take 24 days to run the campaign.

So the number of people in her campaign is given by:

`24 = (192)/(n)`

`24n = 192`

`n = (192)/(24)`

`n = 8`

Shays company will have to use more people each day than alex’s company. how many more?

8 - 6 = 2
