    This is the concept of ratio and proportionality, we are required to find the total time taken to finish construction of a wall that 8 builders take 175 hours to build. To solve this question we proceed as follows;

    Time taken by 8 builders=175 hours

    Fraction of the wall completed by 8 builders in 1 hour = 1/175

    Fraction completed by 4 builders in 1 hour will be:

    4/8*1/175

    =1/350

    therefore time taken for 4 builders to finish the wall will be:

    350 hours

    =14 days and 14 hours
