10 people can paint a building in 5 days. if each person paints as quickly as the others then how much of the building could 7 people paint in 5 days?

The painting rate for 10 people is:

10/5

The painting rate for 7 people is:

7/5

Now use the rule of 3:

10/5 → 100%

7/5 → x

(7/5 * 100) / 10/5

140 / 10/5

140 / 2

70

70% of the building can be painted by 7 men in 5 days.

Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!
