The road of Barangay Lumbia needs to be repaired. The time (t) needed to repair the said road varies jointly as the length (I) and the square of the width (w) of the road, and inversely as the number of men (m) doing the work. The foot road is 10 meters long and 2 meters wide. Five men worked on it and finished the repair in 6 days. What is the value of the variation constant
