A work can be finished In 14 days by 36 workers. If the work were to be finished in 8 days, how many additional workers would be required ?
Using the formula, $$M_1 D_1 = M_2 D_2$$
=> $$36 \times 14 = M_2 \times 8$$
=> $$M_2 = \frac{36 \times 14}{8} = 63$$
$$\therefore$$ Additional workers = 63 - 36 = 27
