Answer:

10 days

Explanation:

We are given that

Each person takes 56 days

7 painters take time=
56* 7=392 painter days

In first 6 days , 7 painters take time=
7* 6=42painter days

After 6 days , 28 volunteers are added then,

Total persons=28+7=35

Now, remaining days=392-42=350

Therefore, number of days are required before the painting of the king of rock 'n' roll is completed=
(350)/(35)=10days

Hence,10 more days are required before the painting of the king of rock 'n' roll is completed
