Question

40 person consume 200 kg of rice in 30 days in how many days will 30 person consume 500 kg of rice

Answer 1

Assuming Average diet per person = constant

Per Person Per Day Consumption = 200 kg/ (40 pax * 30 day) = 1/6 kg

Therefore, Days = 500 Kg / (1/6kg * 30 pax) = 100 days

Answer 2

Thank you for asking this question. Here is your answer:

200 kg = 30 days

1 kg = 30/ 200 days

500 kg = (30/ 200) x 500

= 75 days

Now we will calculate for the 1 person:

40 persons = 75 days  

1 person = 75 x 40 days

For 30 persons:

30 PERSONS = (75 x 40)/ 30

⇒ 3000/30

= 100 days

So the final answer is 30 people consume 500kg of rice in 100 days.
