if three persons can weave 168 shawls in 14 days ,how many shawls will be woven by 8 persons in 5 days.

Since, 3 persons in 14 days can weave 168 shawls.
Then, 3 persons in 1 day can weave 16814 shawls.
So, 1 person in 1 day can weave 16814×3  i.e. 4 shawls.
Then, 8 persons in 1 day can weave 8×4 i.e. 32 shawls
So, 8 persons in 5 days can weave 32×5 i.e 160 shawls.

Therefore, there will be 160 shawls woven by 8 persons in 5 days.

  • 8

let the no. of shawls be x=

No.of persons=3 , 8

No.of shawls=168 , x

It is case of direct variation= 3*x=168*8

= x=168*8/3

=448 shawls
