8 workers were paid 480000 for 2 days work. How much money will 12 workers with the same working ability get for doing the same job in 6 days
If 8 workers were paid 480000 for doing a 2-day job, then each worker earned 480000/8 = <<480000/8=60000>>60000 for the two days of work.
Therefore, each worker earned 60000/2 = <<60000/2=30000>>30000 per day.
If 12 workers with the same working abilities as the initial 8 workers are hired to do the job for 6 days, the total amount of money they will get paid is 30000*6*12 = <<30000*6*12=2160000>>2160000. Answer: \boxed{2160000}.
