Answer 1

Given: 583 people can make 385 baskets in 385days

To find: how long will one person take to prepare two such baskets?

Solution:

We write the problem mathematically,

People Baskets Days

583 385 385

1 2 ?

Here days and people are in inverse proportion; days and baskets are in proportion

Thus required number of days is

= 385 × 583/1 × 2/385

= 1166

Answer: thus one person will take 1166 days to prepare two such baskets
