1. Let time taken to complete the job be x. Persons 3 4 Days 4 x Here the number of persons and the number of days are in inverse proportion. ∴ 3/4 = x/4 ⇒ 4Xx=3x4 ⇒ x=3x4/4= 3days Hence, they will complete the job in 3 days.

    Let time taken to complete the job be x.
    Persons 3 4
    Days 4 x
    Here the number of persons and the number of days are in inverse proportion.
    ∴ 3/4 = x/4 ⇒ 4Xx=3×4 ⇒ x=3×4/4= 3days
    Hence, they will complete the job in 3 days.

  2. Let the number of days be x. Total number of animals = 20 + 10 = 30 Animals 20 30 Days 6 x Here, the number of animals and the number of days are in inverse proportion. ∴ 20/30=x/6 ⇒ 30Xx=20x6 ⇒ x=20x6/30 = 4 Hence, the food will last for four days.

    Let the number of days be x. Total number of animals = 20 + 10 = 30
    Animals 20 30
    Days 6 x
    Here, the number of animals and the number of days are in inverse proportion.
    ∴ 20/30=x/6 ⇒ 30Xx=20×6 ⇒ x=20×6/30 = 4
    Hence, the food will last for four days.

  3. ∵ Each child gets = 5 sweets ∵ 24 children will get 24 x 5 = 120 sweets Total number of sweets = 120 If the number of children is reduced by 4, then children left = 24 – 4 = 20 Now each child will get sweets = 120/20 = 6 sweets Class 8 Maths Chapter 11 Exercise 13.2 Solution in Video for more answerRead more

    ∵ Each child gets = 5 sweets ∵ 24 children will get 24 x 5 = 120 sweets
    Total number of sweets = 120
    If the number of children is reduced by 4, then children left = 24 – 4 = 20
    Now each child will get sweets = 120/20 = 6 sweets

  4. Here the number of spokes are increasing and the angle between a pair of consecutive spokes is decreasing. So, it is a inverse proportion and angle at the centre of a circle is 360°. When the number of spokes is 8, then angle between a pair of consecutive spokes = 360°/8 =45° When the number of spokRead more

    Here the number of spokes are increasing and the angle between a pair of consecutive
    spokes is decreasing. So, it is a inverse proportion and angle at the centre of a circle is 360°.
    When the number of spokes is 8,
    then angle between a pair of consecutive spokes = 360°/8 =45°
    When the number of spokes is 10,
    then angle between a pair of consecutive spokes = 360°/10 =36°
    When the number of spokes is 12,
    then angle between a pair of consecutive spokes = 360°/12 =30°

    No. of spokes 4 6 8 10 12
    Angle between a pair of consecutive spokes 90° 60° 45° 36° 30°

    (i) Yes, the number of spokes and the angles formed between a pair of
    consecutive spokes is in inverse proportion.
    (ii) When the number of spokes is 15, then angle between a pair of consecutive
    spokes = 360°/15 = 24°
    (iii) The number of spokes would be needed = 360°/40° = 9°

    When the number of winners are 8, each winner will get = 100000/8 = ₹12,500
    When the number of winners are 10, each winner will get = 100000/10= ₹10,000
    When the number of winners are 20, each winner will get = 100000/20 = ₹5,000
