Question

If c carpenters can a build a garage in d days, how many days will it take e carpenters, working at the same rate, to build 2 garages?

Answer 1

d ^{2}

Answer 2

2ed/c is your answer? No.. d^2 is not it either... Doing SAT math, and it is not in the multiple choice..

Answer 3

2cd/e if the number of carpenters, number of garages and days of work are directly proportional

Answer 4

Can you show me the work?

Answer 5

rate*time*workers = garages
rate = garages/(time*workers) = 1/cd

(1/cd)*e*time = 2
time = 2cd/e
