If $12$ men working $8$ hours a day can complete a task in $16$ days. If the same task must be completed in $8$ days, how many more people would be required if all them work for $12$ hours a day?

a work can be done by
12 men 3 hr in 16 days
same work
men 8 days for 12 hr
So,
$w_{1} = w_{2}$
$m_{1} h_{1}, d_{1} = m_{2} h_{2} d_{2}$
$12 \times 8 \times 16 = m_{2} \times 8 \times 12$
$m_{2} = 16$
