Q8) A factory requires 42 machines to produce a given number of articles in 63 days. How many machines would be required to produce the same number of articles in 54 days?
Solution:
Let the number of the machine be x.
Here the number of machines and the number of days are in inverse proportion.
\therefore\frac{63}{5}=\frac{x}{42}
\Rightarrow\ x=\frac{63\times42}{54}
\Rightarrow\ x=49
49 machines would be required.
