Question

A mural of Elvis Presley takes 56 days to complete by seven painters 28 volunteers join the team after the first six days how many more days are required before the painting of the king of rock ‘n' roll is completed

Answer 1

10 days

Explanation:

We are given that

Each person takes 56 days

7 painters take time=
`56* 7=392` painter days

In first 6 days , 7 painters take time=
`7* 6=42`painter days

After 6 days , 28 volunteers are added then,

Total persons=28+7=35

Now, remaining days=392-42=350

Therefore, number of days are required before the painting of the king of rock 'n' roll is completed=
`(350)/(35)=10`days

Hence,10 more days are required before the painting of the king of rock 'n' roll is completed
