Question
If 8 women collect 200 kg of tea leaves in 10 hours. How many more (in kg) of tea leaves will 12 women collect in 8 hours?
Options:
- 24 kg
- 50 kg
- 100 kg
- 40 kg
Solution
First, we need to find out how much tea leaves one woman can collect in one hour.
Given that 8 women collect 200 kg of tea leaves in 10 hours, one woman would collect 200 kg / 8 = 25 kg in 10 hours.
So, in one hour, one woman would collect 25 kg / 10 = 2.5 kg.
Now, if 12 women work for 8 hours, they would collect 12 * 2.5 kg/hour * 8 hours = 240 kg.
The difference between what 12 women can collect in 8 hours and what 8 women can collect in 10 hours is 240 kg - 200 kg = 40 kg.
So, 12 women will collect 40 kg more of tea leaves in 8 hours than 8 women in 10 hours.
Therefore, the answer is 40 kg.
