1)  

 If 15 men can built a wall 111 meters  long in 5 days, what length of a similar wall can be built by 20 men in 2 days.

Answer: 59 meters


SOLUTION 1 :

Soln  :

Number of MenNumber of daysLength of the wall in (m)
    15    5        111
    20     2       

Step :1

        Consider the No of men & Length of the wall. As the No of men increases from 15 to 20, the length of the wall also increases.

         It is in direct variation.

          The multiplying factor  = 2015

Step :2

       Consider the No of days & the length of the wall. As the No of days decreases from 5 to 2, length of the wall also decreases.

       It is in direct variation.

       The multiplying factor    =   25

                                       x     =   2015 x 25 x 111

                                              =  1.3333333333333 x 0.4 x 111
