1. If 15 men working at the same rate can manufacture 27 baskets in an hour, how many baskets would 45 men manufacture in 40 minutes?
- A. 37
- B. 37
- C. 37
- D. 37
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
27 baskets / 15 men = 1.8
So, 1 man can make 1.8 baskets in an hour.
1.8 baskets / 60 minutes = 0.03
So, 1 man can make 0.03 baskets in a minute.
0.03 baskets × 40 minutes = 1.2
So, 1 man can make 1.2 baskets in 40 minutes.
1.2 baskets × 45 men = 54
S0 45 men can make 54 baskets in 40 minutes
