How to solve it (Go through one): Unitary: cost of one = total ÷ number; then multiply by how many you need. Ratio p : q of a total: one part = total ÷ (p + q); a share = its parts × one part. Workers and days go the opposite way: total work = workers × days; days = total work ÷ new number of workers.
