Leilani0324:
Cuz you double tha amount of ppl nd hours ig
imnotjay:
Its basically a ratio
it took 6 ppl 9 hrs to build a barn
so 12 ppl = ?
6:9
12:?
imnotjay:
The amount of hrs would be smaller because more ppl means it would finish faster
yallbabynene08:

Well, the problem is asking how long it would take 12 people to build the same barn.
Since it took 6 people 9 hours to build the born \[6 people = 9 h\]
it would take 9 hours divided by 2 for 12 people. Logically the more people there is, the less time it takes.
\[6 \times 2 = 12\] which means that \[9 \div 2 = ?\] would give you your answer.
yallbabynene08:
what do yall think the answer is
KazGotFetee:
So this is a ratio of 6:9 so to find how long it takes 12 ppl to make a barn
KazGotFetee:
so basically whats 9 divided by 2
Leilani0324:
9 divided by 2 is 4.5

It seems all our equations were accurate to the question and were also similar too -
Adverturetime57:
6 people took 9 hours to build a barn . Time taken by 6 people to build barn = 9 hours. Time taken by 12 people to build the same barn. Time taken by 12 people to build the same barn is 18 days
