It takes 3 brick layers 2 hours to build a wall how long would it take 4 brick layers please show steps in ratio

Ratios are basically proportions so in this scenario

We can make it…

brick layers : hours

We’re given the first one which is

3:2

Whilst the one we need to find is only given for brick

For the unknown hours we can make it “x”

4: x

Now we have 2 ratios

3:2

4:x

Now these are fractions and we can make them equal to each other by

3/2 = 4/x

Now cross multiply to solve for x

3x=8

2 2/3 = x

So 2 2/3 hours
