∴ Remaining work = (1−

We have to find the number of additional men required, hence we shall compare each other item with the number of men.
Less hours per day, more men required (Indirect proportion)
More work, more men required (Direct proportion)
More days, less men required (Indirect proportion).

Since,

⇒ x =

3×10×9×400×4

4×20×8

= 675
∴ Additional men = (675 – 400) = 275
