Wow. That was cool. Thanks for walking through the logic/reasoning.


There are a lot of ways to do this type of problem.

Say, 375,000 men and 25% of them men get a hair cut every 2 weeks taking 30 min, most men get far fewer haircuts but they bring the average down to about once a month.

Av workweek = 40 hours * 4 weeks = 160 men per barber sounds low call it 200.

375,000 / 200 is less than 2,000.
