4 people can do the work in 6 hours
4*6 = 24 work hours
It will take 1 person 24 work hours to complete the job
Answer:
24 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is a tricky one, but easy to solve at the same time. Normally the answer to this question would be 1 person = 24 (blank). But since we are talking about time, unit rates would not help very much. Multiply 4*6=24. It would take one person (assuming he goes as fast ad the others) 24 hours to complete the job.
