In a dairy farm, 40 cows eat 40 bags of husk in 40 days. In how many days one cow will eat one bag of husk ?

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

As it is given that food is there for 54 days for 2000 students,
But after 15 days, remaining food was sufficient for 2000 students for 39 days only ( as 54-15 = 39 )
Let x number of students came in hostel after 15 days,
=> Total number of students after 15 days = 2000 + x
=> Remaining food was enough for (2000 + x) students for 20 days
So here is indirect proportion, as more people and less food
=> 2000 : ( 2000 + x ) :: 20 : 39
=> 2000 * 39 = ( 2000 + x ) * 20
=> 3900 = 2000 + x
=> x = 3900 - 2000
=> x = 1900

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Please always remember, that what exactly we need to calculate before applying chain formula. As in this question we need to find how many mats, RIGHT !
So we will compare everything with "number of mats"
As,

More men, More number of mats (Direct Proportion)
More days, More number of mats (Direct Proportion)

So, it can be solved as,

\begin{aligned}
\begin{bmatrix}Weavers & 4 & 8 \\Days & 4 & 8 \end{bmatrix} :: 4 : x \\

=> x*4*4 = 8*8*4 \\
=> x = 16
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the time required by x seconds.
Then, More cloth means More time (Direct Proportion)
So,
\begin{aligned}
0.128 : 1 :: 25 : x
=> x = \frac{25*1}{0.128} \\
=> x = 195.31
\end{aligned}

So time will be approx 195 seconds

Answer: Option C

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Less Men, means more Days {Indirect Proportion}

Let the number of days be x
then,

27 : 36 :: 18 : x
[Please pay attention, we have written 27 : 36 rather than 36 : 27, in indirect proportion, if you get it then chain rule is clear to you :)]

\begin{aligned}
x = \frac{36*18}{27} \\
x = 24
\end{aligned}
So 24 days will be required to get work done by 27 men.
