Question:If it takes 6 men 6 days to dig 6 holes, how long will it take 1 man to dig a half a hole?

Answers:
12 hours
3 days

Since 6 men dig 6 holes in 6 days.. then each man is digging one of the 6 holes in 6 days. So a man alone can dig half as much in half as long... 3 days.
12 days?
3. It takes one man 1 day to dig 1/6 of a hole. Half a hole is 3/6 which is 3 days.
There is no such a thing as a "half a hole". Unless the hole has specific dimensions... in that case one half day.again... assuming all men are equal in ability...
So each man digs a hole per day. So 1/2 day
a Half a hole?.. no. a hole is a hole no matter how deep.
3 days
yea there is such a thing as half a hole you smart as$ people. if you want your hole to have a diameter of 3 feet and a depth of 4 feet, then your hole is 1.5 in diameter and 2 feet in depth, then what do you call that?? half a hole- exactly
1/2 of 1 day
If it is a hole, you can't get half of one. Any hole is a hole.
1/2 day
Well that question needs more specifications.
I mean, this guy could be like a professional hole-digger and the other ones could've been just inexperienced ones.
And I mean, how big was his shovel?
And what kind of terrain was he digging on?
And what was the temperature, humidity, and weather?
And how can something be "half a hole"? I though a hole was a hole.I don't think there are halves of holes.
half day
If I was that one man I would just let the others dig it.
