Myah Haney · Answer 1

It'll take them 2.4 days to install 360 chairs

Ashleigh Holder · Answer 2

6 days and 18 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that after 4 days, the workers still have to install 360 chairs, it is expected that as time in days increases, the number of chairs installed increases as well. This is a direct proportionality between both measures.

If after 4 days, the workers still have to install 360 chairs then 600 chairs would be installed in

= 600 * 4/360 days

= 6 2/3 days

= 6 days and 18 hours
