Solution

20 men can consume a certain quantity of rice in 14 days

20 men => 14 days

and we have to find out in how many days will 8 men consume the same quantity of rice
8 mens => days ?

since the quantity is same we can conclude that

20*14 = 8*x
x = (20*14)/8
x = 280/8
x = 35

in 35 days will 8 men consume the same quantity of rice .
