If Samuel and Aria work together on a project, they will complete it in 8 days. If Aria were to work with Aubrey on the same project, they will take a day longer. If Aubrey and Michael work together, they will take 200% more time than Samuel and Aria. If Samuel and Michael were to work together, how many more days will they take to complete the project compared to Aria and Aubrey working together?
Time taken by Samuel and Aria in percent = 100%
Time taken by Aubrey and Michael = 100% + 200% = 300%

Time taken by Samuel and Aria = 8 days ---- (1)
Time taken by Aria and Aubrey = 9 days ---- (2)
Time taken by Aubrey and Michael = 300% x 8 = 24 days ---- (3)

(1) + (2) + (3)
Samuel + Aria + Aria + Aubrey + Aubrey + Michael → 8 + 9 + 24 = 41 days
Samuel + 2 (Aria + Aubrey) + Michael → 41 days
Samuel + Michael + 2 x 9 → 41 days
Samuel + Michael → 41 - 18 = 23 days

More days to complete the project for Samuel and Michael compared to Aria and Aubrey
= 23 - 9
= 14

Answer(s): 14
