Question

If 6 workers can paint a house in 2 days; how

many days will it take for 3 workers to paint the same house?

Answer 1

0, because the house is already painted. If this isn't a riddle then, it should take 4 days because that is half the people, two times the workload per person.

Answer 2

4 days

Explanation:

6 workers takes 2 days.

That means that each worker works 6*2 = 12 worker days.

To get the same amount it takes 3 workers 4 days to get 12 worker days.
