Question

If 8 persons can weave 160 shawls in 5 days, how many shawls will be woven by 3 persons in
14 days?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

12 days is the right answer

Answer 2

Answer:

Since, 8 persons in 5 days can weave 160 shawls.

Then, 8 persons in 1 day can weave 160/5 shawls.

So, 1 person in 1 day can weave 160/5*8  i.e. 4 shawls.

Then, 3 persons in 1 day can weave 3*4 i.e. 12 shawls

So, 3 persons in 14 days can weave 12*14 i.e 168 shawls.
