Question

iif 5 women can make 8 carpets in 10 days. how many carpets will 4 women make in 25 days​

Answer 1

Answer:

16 carpets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the "work" be defined as making of 8 carpets

5 women complete the work in 10 days

1 woman will complete the work in 50 days

In one day, 1 woman will complete 1/50 of the work

In one day, 4 women will complete 4*(1/50) of the work

In 25 days, 4 women will complete 25*4*(1/50) of the work

Now:

25*4*(1/50) = 100/50 = 2

Thus,

In 25 days, 4 women will complete 2 times the work

Given that the "work" is defined as making of 8 carpets, two times the work will mean making 16 carpets.

Hence,

4 women will make 16 carpets in 25 days
