Question

If 12 women can weave 15 metre of cloth in a day ,how many metres of cloth can be woven by 20 women in a day? *​

Answer 1

Given,

$12$ women can weave $15$ meters of cloth in a day

So, first we have to find that how much one women can weave for a day.

For this,

one women can weave cloth in one day

$=\frac{15}{12}$

$=\frac{5}{4}$

So, $20$ women can weave cloth in one day

$=20\times \frac{5}{4}$

$=25$ meters

Therefore, $20$ women can weave $25$ meters in a day.

Answer 2

Answer:

$25$ meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data,

• $12$ women can weave $15$ meters of cloth a day

• As per the given questions, we need to find number of meters of cloth that can be woven by $20$ women in a day.

• Quantity of cloth that can be woven by one woman in a day

$=\frac{15}{12}=\frac{5}{4} m$

• Quantity of cloth that can be woven by $20$ women in a day

$=\frac{5}{5}\times20=25m$

Hence, 25 meters of cloth can be woven by $20$ women in a day.
