How long would it take one builder to build the cottage on his own? ** It would take one builder 8 x 3 = <<8*3=24>>24 days to build the cottage on his own.
How long would it take 6 builders to build the same size cottage working at the same rate? ** 6 builders can build the house in 24 / 6 = <<24/6=4>>4 days.
