How many days does it take 1 person to paint a whole house? ** First, we need to determine how many days it takes 1 person to paint a whole house. We do this by performing 5*2=<<5*2=10>>10 days to paint the full house.
How many days would it take 5 people to paint a whole house? ** Since five people would perform the task 5 times as fast, we find the total amount of time required by performing 10/5= <<10/5=2>>2 days to paint the full house.
How many hours would it take 5 people to paint a whole house? ** Since there are 24 hours in a day, we perform 24*2=<<24*2=48>>48 hours for them to paint the full house.
