A garrison of 500 persons had provisions for 27 days. After 3 days a reinforcement of 300 persons arrived. For how many more days will the remaining food last now?
Detailed Solution for Test: Direct And Inverse Proportions- 2 - Question 5

Let the remaining food last for x days
500 men had provision for = (27 - 3) = 24 days
(500 + 300) men had provision for x days
More men, Less days (Indirect proportion)
∴ 800 : 500 :: 24 : x
⇔ (800 × x) = (500 × 24)
⇔ x = (500 × 24)/800
⇔ x = 15

12 men can dig 8 meters long trench in a day. How many men should be employed for digging 50 meter long trench of the same type in one day?
Detailed Solution for Test: Direct And Inverse Proportions- 2 - Question 6

Let's solve the problem using the concept of direct proportion.

Given:

  • 12 men can dig an 8-meter-long trench in one day.
  • We need to find the number of men required to dig a 50-meter-long trench in one day.

Step 1: Establish the proportion

The number of men required is directly proportional to the length of the trench.

Let x be the number of men required to dig the 50-meter trench.

Men∝Length of trench

 

So,

In an army camp, there are 320 soldiers. They have sufficient food for 80 days. If after 20 days, 20 soldiers left the camp, for how many more days will the food last?
Detailed Solution for Test: Direct And Inverse Proportions- 2 - Question 7

Food for 320 students= 80 days

20 students left the campus

Number of students = 320 - 20 = 300 students

Food will last for (80 - 20) = 60 days fpr 320 students

Food will last for X days for 300 students

⇒ X = (320 x 60)/300 = 64

Food for 300 students= 64 days

A journey by bus takes 45 minutes at 40 km/hour. How fast must a car go to undertake the same journey in 25 minutes?
Detailed Solution for Test: Direct And Inverse Proportions- 2 - Question 8

45 minutes = 45/60 hour = 3/4 hour
25 minutes = 25/60 hour = 5/12 hour
distance = speed x time
as distance travel is same
40x3/4=ax5/12
solve it and you will get a=72 km/h

Suppose 2 kg of sugar contains 9 × 106 crystals. How many sugar crystals are there in 1.2 kg of sugar?
Detailed Solution for Test: Direct And Inverse Proportions- 2 - Question 16

Since the number of sugar crystals is directly proportional to the weight of sugar, we can set up the following relationship:

Weight of sugar / Number of crystals = k

Where k is a constant.
Using the given information:

k=2 kg / 9×106 crystals

Let y be the number of crystals in 1.2 kg of sugar. Again using the direct proportion:

1.2 kg / y = 2 kg / 9×106 crystals

Cross-multiplying gives:

1.2 × ( 9×106 ) = 2 × y

Calculating the left side:

10.8 × 106 = 2y

Now, solving for y:

y = 10.8×106 / 2 = 5.4 × 106

There are 100 students in a hostel. Food provision for them is for 20 days. How long will these provisions last, if 25 more students join the group?
Detailed Solution for Test: Direct And Inverse Proportions- 2 - Question 20

Number of person = 100, Number of days = 20, = 100 * 20
Number of person = 125  (∵ 25 student join), let Number of days = x = 125 * X
So, 100 * 20 = 125 * X
or 2000 = 125x
or, 125x =  2000

∴ X = 2000/125 = 16
Therefore, that the last provisions will 16 dyas.
