Five workers have been hired to complete a job. If one additional worker is hired, they could complete the job $4$ days earlier. If the job needs to be completed $20$ days earlier, how many additional workers should be hired?
So, right now there are 5 workers. They need to get the job completed 20 days earlier.
Since each additional worker adds on 4 days, we simply have
Number Of DaysDays Saved Per Worker. Thus, we can plug in 20/4=5 workers.
So our answer is 5 workers.
Thanks! :)
