Question

a car assembly makes 60 cars in 27 days with the help of 45 artisans. Approximately how many cars can be made in 14days with the help of 15 artisans?

Answer 1

1 artisan can build \[60 \over {27 * 45}\] cars per day.
So, 15 artisans can build \[{{60 * 14 *15} \over {27 * 45}} = 10.37 \] - that is 10 cars - in 2 weeks.

Answer 2

for 45 artisans:
27days = 60 cars
1 day = 60/25 cars

if 45artsans =60/27 cars in a day,
then 1 artisan = [(60/27) / 45] cars

So 15 artisans in 1 day = [(60/27) / 45] *15 cars

In 14 days,
15 artisans will make { [(60/27) / 45] *15 }*14 = 10 cars.
Final answer is 10 cars.

Answer 3

for 45 artisans:
27days = 60 cars
1 day = 60/25 cars

if 45artsans =60/27 cars in a day,
then 1 artisan = [(60/27) / 45] cars

So 15 artisans in 1 day = [(60/27) / 45] *15 cars

In 14 days,
15 artisans will make { [(60/27) / 45] *15 }*14 = 10 cars.
Final answer is 10 cars.
