20 minutes because 120 players means 60 players playing 20 minutes. 60P+60P=40T so 60P=20T

they can't. 60 people can't play a symphony with 120 parts in it

But there isn't violin 120 written in. Get rid of all the second parts and the violin and you have 60 people.

Since it's about music and music is harmonic the harmonic mean must remain constant. [math] \frac{2}{\frac{1}{120} + \frac{1}{40}}=\frac{2}{\frac{1}{60} + \frac{1}{x}} \implies \frac{2}{\frac{1}{120} + \frac{3}{120}}=\frac{2}{\frac{1}{60} + \frac{1}{x}} \implies \frac{1}{\frac{4}{120}}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{60} + \frac{1}{x}} \implies \frac{1}{\frac{1}{30}}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{60} + \frac{1}{x}} \implies \frac{1}{30}=\frac{1}{60} + \frac{1}{x} \implies \frac{1}{30}-\frac{1}{60} = \frac{1}{x} \implies \frac{2}{60}-\frac{1}{60} = \frac{1}{x} \implies \frac{1}{60} = \frac{1}{x} \implies x=60 [/math]
So it takes 60 minutes for 60 players to play it.

Wrong. Slightly under 40 minutes because additional peer pressure will cause them to rush.

>>11644823
Since we're assuming proper materials are available, 9 women absolutely can make a baby in one month. In fact, with an aquarium or lab they can make thousands, even millions of fish or insect babies.

And unless you're a godless sodomite who thinks life doesn't begin at conception, then by performing IVF they can create thousands of soul-endowed one-month-old babies in that time.

It's part of the definition of the harmonic mean (the reciprocal of the aritmetic mean of the reciprocals of the numbers). It's the number of arguments involved just like when you do (a+b)/2 or (a+b+c)/3, but yeah it's not needed in the equality. The post is obviously a troll reply to a troll post.
