Given : 

10 people can paint a building in 5 days.

So, boiling paint by 1 person in 5 days = 1/10

Now, according to question each person moves as quickly as others then we have to find the work done by 7 people in 5 days.

Building paint by 7 people in 5 days = 1/10 × 7

= 7/10

 

Hence, 7/10 building is paint by 7 people in 5 days.
