Answer 1

Solution

Given :

40 kg of rice lasts 30 days in a family of 8 persons.

To find

If 2 guests stay with

the family, how many days will 40 kg of rice last?

Answer

Number of persons = 8

Total rice = 40 kg

Days = 30

So,

Rice for 1 person for 30 days = 40/8 = 5kg

Rice 1 person need for 1 day = 5/30 kg

If 2 guests arrived

The Number of persons will be 8 + 2 =10

Rice for 1 person for 30 days = 40/10 = 4

Rice 1 person need for 1 day = 5/30 kg

Rice will last for = 4÷ 5/30

= 4× 30/5

= 24 day

Rice will last for 24 days...

Hope this will help...
