(i) Let the number of days be x.
Persons 2 1
Days 3 x
Here, the number of persons and the number of days are in inverse proportion.
∴ 2/1 = x/3 ⇒ xX1=2×3 ⇒ x=2×3/1 = 6 days
(ii) Let the number of persons be x.
Persons 2 x
Days 3 1
Here, the number of persons and the number of days are in inverse proportion.
∴ 2/x = 1/3 ⇒ xX1=2×3 ⇒ x=2×3/1= 6 persons
