Explanation

Work = Men * Days. 12 * 16 = 4 * D. D = (12 * 16) / 4 = 3 * 16 = 48.

AI explanation

By the Man-Days formula, the total work equals 12 men times 16 days, giving 192 man-days. Dividing this total work by 4 men gives 192 divided by 4, which equals 48 days. It will take 4 men 48 days to complete the task.
