The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine how many days it would take for 1 man to complete 1 job given that 100 men can complete 100 jobs in 100 days. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Information:** - 100 men can complete 100 jobs in 100 days. - We need to find out how many days it takes for 1 man to complete 1 job. 2. **Setting Up the Relationship:** - Let's denote: - \( M_1 = 100 \) (number of men in the first scenario) - \( D_1 = 100 \) (number of days in the first scenario) - \( W_1 = 100 \) (number of jobs in the first scenario) - \( M_2 = 1 \) (number of men in the second scenario) - \( W_2 = 1 \) (number of jobs in the second scenario) - \( D_2 \) (number of days in the second scenario, which we need to find) 3. **Using the Work Formula:** - We can use the formula relating men, days, and work: \[ \frac{M_1 \times D_1}{W_1} = \frac{M_2 \times D_2}{W_2} \] - Plugging in the known values: \[ \frac{100 \times 100}{100} = \frac{1 \times D_2}{1} \] 4. **Simplifying the Equation:** - The left side simplifies to: \[ 100 = D_2 \] - Therefore, \( D_2 = 100 \). 5. **Conclusion:** - It takes 100 days for 1 man to complete 1 job. ### Final Answer: 1 man can do 1 job in **100 days**.
