Answer 1

Question :-

80 men can consume 120 kg of rice in 30 days. In how many days will 60 men consume 24 kg of rice.

Answer :-

80 men can consume 120 kg of rice in 30 days.

So, Amount of rice 80 men can consume in 1 day = 120 / 30

= 4 kg

80 men can consume 4 kg of rice in one day.

Now, Amount of rice 1 men can consume in 1 day = 4 / 80

= 0.05 kg

1 men can consume 0.05 kg per day.

We are asked in how many days will 60 men consume 24 kg of rice.

Amount of rice 60 men consume in one day = 60 × 0.05

= 3 kg

60 men can consume 3 kg of rice in one day.

Number of days 60 men will take to consume 24 kg of rice = 24 / 3

= 8 days

Number of days 60 men will take to consume 24 kg of rice = 8 days

Answer 2

Main Answer = 8 kg☑

Full solution ↷

⟶Since, 80 men can consume 120 kg of rice in 30 days.

⟶Therefore, Amount of rice 80 men can consume in 1 day =$\bold{ \frac{120}{30} }= 4 kg$

⟶80 men can consume 4 kg of rice in one day.

⟶Now, Amount of rice 1 men can consume in 1 day= $\bold{ \frac{4}{80} }= 0.05 kg$

1 men can consume 0.05 kg per day.

$\mapsto$ We have asked that in how many days will the 60 men consume 24 kg of rice.

=> Amount of rice 60 men consume in one day

$\implies$60 × 0.05

$\implies$= 3 kg

60 men can consume 3 kg of rice in one day.

$\rule{200}2$

=>Number of days 60 men will take to consume 24 kg of rice

$\implies$ = 24 / 3

$\implies$= 8 days

⇒Number of days 60 men will take to consume 24 kg of rice = 8 days
