Answer 1

7 pairs of jeans and 14 shirts.

Answer 2

In a camping trip of 14 days:

Shirts needed = 14, Pair of jeans needed = 7

Explanation:

Here, according to the question:

The pair of jeans required for 4 days = 2 pairs

So, the number of jeans required in 1 day = 2/4 = 1/ 2 pairs

⇒The number of jeans required in 2 days =
`(1)/(2)  * 2  = 1`

or, The pair of jeans required in 2 days = 1 pair ..... (1)

Similarly, The pair of shirts required for 4 days = 4

So, the number of shirts required in 1 day = 4/4 = 1

⇒The number of jeans required in 2 days = 1 x 2 = 2 shirts ... (2)

Now, packing for 14 days = Packing for 3 x (4) days + 2 days

So, total shirts required for 14 days = 3 x (shirt required for 4 days) + shirt required for 2 days

= 3 x (4) + 2 = 14 shirts

or, total shirts required for 14 days camping = 14

Also, total jeans required for 14 days = 3 x (jeans required for 4 days) + jeans required for 2 days

= 3 x (2) + 1 = 7 pairs

or, total pair of jeans required for 14 days camping = 7

Hence, in a camping trip of 14 days:

Shirts needed = 14, Pair of jeans needed = 7
