The Roman Empire had good roads the army had to move quickly from place to place the soldiers had to pave 1600 cubits of the road in 20 days they finished the work 4 days earlier how many more cubits did the soldiers paved every day compared to the original assignment?

1. Determine the rate of road construction when performing work in 20 days:

1600: 20 = 80 (cubits / day).

2. Determine how much time the soldiers actually spent on laying a road of 1600 cubits:

20 – 4 = 16 (days).

3. Determine the speed of road construction by soldiers when performing work in 16 days:

1600: 16 = 100 (cubits / day).

4. Determine how many soldiers paved more roads per day in comparison with the original task:

100 – 80 = 20 (cubits / day).

Answer: For 20 cubits a day, the soldiers paved more roads than the original assignment.
