Question
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
Let the required number of days be x.
Less cows, More days (Indirect Proportion)
Less bags, Less days (Direct Proportion)
\[\left. \begin{gathered}
{\text{Cows}}\,\,\,\,\,1:40 \hfill \\
{\text{Bags}}\,\,\,\,\,40:1 \hfill \\
\end{gathered} \right\}::40:x\]
$$\eqalign{
& \therefore 1 \times 40 \times x = 40 \times 1 \times 40 \cr
& \Rightarrow x = 40 \cr} $$
