Answer 2

Answer:

7.5 kg

let us assume the consumption of rice in 18 days to be x kgs.

the more the period of time, the more is the consumption of rice, hence the proportion is a direct proportion.

∴ (ratio of number of days) : :(ratio of consumption of rice)

⇒24:18::60:x

Product of means=Product of extremes

⇒24×x=18×60⇒x=18×6024=45kg

∴ The consumption of rice for 18 days is 45 kg.
