The number of days it would take 15 people to complete the task is 9.1 days.

The formula used to represent inverse proportion is:

y = [tex]\frac{k}{x}[/tex]

  • y = dependent variable
  • x = independent variable
  • k = constant of proportionality

The information given in the question can be represented with:

2 = k/10

k = 20

The number of weeks it would take 15 people to complete the same task:

20 / 15 = 1.3 weeks = 9.1 days
