7. Naveen can mould 4 statues from 10 clumps of clay.
If the number of statues and the required clumps of
clay are proportional, how many statues can Naveen
mould with 15 clumps of clay? (explain it step by step) ( ans. 6)​

Answer 1

10 clumps of clay Naveen can mould = 4 statues

therefore,15 clumps of clay Naveen can mould= 15×4=60 .

Answer 2

Answer:

6 statues

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of statues moulded:clumps=2:5

Let no. of statues be x.

Then 2:5::x:15

2/5=x/15

5x=30

x=6.

Hence, 6 statues can be moulded from 15 clumps.

Hope this helps. Goood day to you.
