Question

If 4 men in 5 days eat 7 pounds of bread how much will be sufficient for 16 me in 15 days

Answer 1

If 4 men in 5 days eat 7 pounds of bread how much will be sufficient for 16 me in 15 days

Solution: Since 4 men in 5 days eat 7 pounds of bread. Therefore 1 men in 1 day eats
`(7)/(4 * 5)=(7)/(20)` pound of bread

Now the required bread for 16 men in 15 days is:

`(7)/(20)  * 16 * 15=(1680)/(20) =84` pounds

Therefore, 84 pounds of bread will be sufficient for 16 men in 15 days
