Answer:

17 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of days in which 3 men can finish a house repair job = 10 days

Number of days in which 1 man can finish a house repair job = [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex] days

Therefore,

Number of days in which 5 men can finish a house repair job = Number of days in which 1 man can finish a house repair job × 5

[tex]=\frac{10}{3}(5)=\frac{50}{3}=16.6[/tex] ≈ 17 days
