The wall can be built in 22 days by 6 workers in first 6 days and 9 workers in the rest of time.
How to use inverse proportionality to determine building time of a wall
In this question we must use the definition of inverse proportionality, in which the number of workers (), no unit, is inversely proportional to the building time (
), in days.
According to the statement, 6 workers spent 6 days building a wall and there are 24 days left for completion, but 3 more workers entered to reduce building time, which can be represented by the following expression:
In this scenario, the wall can be built in 22 days.
