Question : 12 men can weave 20 shawls in 9 days. How many men will be required to weave 25 shawls in 27 days?
Option 1: 3
Option 2: 5
Option 3: 4
Option 4: 6
Correct Answer: 5
Solution : Given : $M_1 =12$ $D_1 =9$ $W_1=20$ $D_2 =27$ $W_2=25$ We know, $\frac{M_1 ×D_1}{W_1}=\frac{M_2 ×D_2}{W_2}$ $\Rightarrow \frac{12\times 9}{20}=\frac{M_2 \times 27}{25}$ $\Rightarrow M_2 =\frac{12\times 9\times 25}{20\times 27}$ $\therefore M_2 =5$ So, the required number of men to finish the work is 5. Hence, the correct answer
