Kinda Corny ... :)

If 9 men and 7 women can pick as much corn in 5 days as 7 men and 11 women can pick in 4 days ....


Who are the better corn pickers ... the men or the women? ... and by how much?

Converting to how many are needed to equal each other in 1 day
=> 5(9m + 7w) = 4(7m + 11w) => one woman w ≈ 1.89 men.
