Respuesta :

Answer:

1 person  

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a farmer wants 5 persons to complete a work of clearing his field in ten number of days.

We have to find out the number of persons required if the farmer needs to clear his field in 2 number of days.

Therefore according to the information given :

10 days = 5 persons

∴ 1 day = [tex]$\frac{5}{10}$[/tex] persons

So  2 days = [tex]$\frac{5}{10}\times 2$[/tex] persons

                 [tex]$=\frac{5}{5}$[/tex] person

                 = 1 person
