Three builders build a single floor of a house in 30 days. If each builder is paid $100 for a single day’s work, how much would it cost to hire 6 builders to build 5 houses with 6 floors each?

How many builders are there? ** 6 builders can build a single floor 6 builders / 3 builders = <<6/3=2>>2 times as fast as 3 builders.
How many days would it take 6 builders to build a single floor? ** Thus 6 builders would build a single floor in 30 days / 2 = 15 days
How many floors are there in 5 houses? ** There are 5 hours x 6 floors/house = <<5*6=30>>30 floors in total in 5 houses with 6 floors each.
How many days would it take 6 builders to complete the project? ** Therefore 6 builders would complete the project in 15 days/floor x 30 floors = 450 days.
How much would it cost to hire 6 builders to build 5 houses with 6 floors each? ** It would cost 450 days x $100/day/builder * 6 builders = $<<450*100*6=270000>>270000 to complete the project
