Question

A farmer has enough food to feed 20 cattle for 6 days. The number of days food will last if there were 10 more cattle is

___

Answer 1

As animals increases, the number of days decreases. This is in inverse proportion.

Let the required number of days be t

20 x 6 = 30 x t

t = 4

So, the food will last for 4 days.
