11 potters can make 143 pots in 8 days.

1 potter can make 143 pots in 8 × 11 days.

1 potter can make 1 pot in (8 × 11)/143 days.

Let the number of potters required be x, then;

 x potters can make 1 pot in (8 × 11)/( 143 × x) days

x potters can make 169 pots in (8 × 11 × 169)/(143 × x ) days

But the number of days given = 4

 According to the problem;

(8 × 11 × 169)/(143 × x ) = 4

14872/143x = 4

572x = 14872

x = 14872/572

x = 26

Therefore, 26 potters are required to make 169 pots in 4 days.

Answer 2

Answer:

• 26 potters are required

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

• 11 potters can make 143 pots in 8 days

To Find :

• the number of potters will be required to make 169 pots in 4 days

Solution :

11 potters can make 143 pots in 8 days.

1 potter can make 143 pots in

= 8 × 11 days.

1 potter can make 1 pot in

= (8 × 11)/143 days.

Let the number of potters required be x, then;

x potters can make 1 pot in

= (8 × 11)/( 143 × x) days

x potters can make 169 pots in

= (8 × 11 × 169)/(143 × x ) days

But the number of days given = 4

According to the problem;

(8 × 11 × 169)/(143 × x ) = 4

14872/143x = 4

572x = 14872

x = 14872/572

x = 26

Therefore, 26 potters are required to make 169 pots in 4 days.
