I dont get it....a man and a half? a fish and a half?
I have one thing to say, HUH????
there is no half man, no half fish sooooooo, idk
28 fish
1.5 man gets 1.5 fish in 1.5 day
so => 3 men get 3 fish in 1.5 day
so => 6 men get 6 fish in 1.5 day
so => 6 men get 4 fish in 1 day
so => 6 men get 4*7= 28 fish in 7 days
Some decent, but faulty, logic earlier. It's more of a word riddle than a math one. 1 and 1/2 men catch 1 and 1/2 fish in 1 and 1/2 days means 1 man catches one fish in one day, so 6 men is 6 fish in one day, times 7 days is ... 42 fish.
42
1.5 man catch 1.5 fish in 1.5 days
keep time constant, increase manpower by 4 times get 4 times more output.
6 man catch 6 fish in 1.5 days
keep manpower constant, devide days by 1.5 and get 1.5 times less output.
6 man catch 4 fish in 1 days --------- (1)
keep manpower constant, multiply days by 6 and get 6 times more output.
6 man catch 24 fish in 6 days --------- (2)
add (1) and (2)
keeping man constant
6 man catch 28 fish in 7 days
42
