Question

6men can cultivate an area of 250m2 in 2hours ,What area would 5hours men cultivate in 3hours working at the rate.

Answer 1

Answer:

312.5

Step-by-step explanation:

area cultivated is proportional to number of men multiplied by no of hours;

So

$\frac{a_2}{250} = \frac{5*3}{6*2}\\ = \frac{15}{12}\\ = \frac{5}{4}$

a2 = 250*5/4

= 312.5 m2
