Answer:

18

Explanation:

So if it took 64 days with 12 workers and they want to build a similar building with 48 this js what you would do.

12 workers took 64 days ok

now times that by 2

24 workers now divide the days cause you have 2x the workers

24 workers is 32 days

now do the same thing

times 2 workers divided 2 days

48 workers 18 days
