Q:

If 20 men can build a wall 56 meters long in 6 days , what length of a similar wall can be built by 35 men in 3 days?

A) 46	B) 47
C) 48	D) 49

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 49

Explanation:

Let the required length be x meters

More men, More length built (Direct proportion)

Less days, Less length built (Direct Proportion)

$\begin{array}{r} \begin{matrix} M e n & 20 : 35 \end{matrix} \\ \begin{matrix} D a y s & 6 : 3 \end{matrix} \end{array}\} ⋮ ⋮ 56 : x$

=> (20 x 6 x X)=(35 x 3 x 56)

=> x = 49

Hence, the required length is 49 m.

$12 R^{2} = 432$

=> $R^{2} = 36 \Leftrightarrow R = 6$
