Chain rule

Chain Rule Questions from Pitambar Lal   ( with solution)

how to solve chain rule problems

A garrison had provisions for a certain number of days. After 10 days, 1/5 of the men desert and it is found that the provisions will now last just as long as before. How long was that?

a)      50 days                b) 30 days          c) 40 days           d) 60 days

Answer:

Let “x” be the number of days the provisions would last for the garrison of “y” men

We can re phrase the question now.

“ there is provision for y men for ( x – 10) days, and there is provision for ( y – y/5 = 4y/5) men for x number of days”

So, x = (x – 10) * {y/(4y/5)}

Or, x = (5/4)( x – 10)

Or, 4x = 5x – 50

Or, x = 50 days. answer is a.

If 40 men can make 30 boxes in 20 days, How many more men are needed to make 60 boxes in 25 days?

a)      28           b) 24                      c) 22                       d) 26

Answer:

40 x (60/30) x (20/25) =  64 men

So, extra men = 64 – 40 = 24. Answer is b.

Note: for making more number of boxes you will need more number of men. So fraction must be more than 1............... (60/ 30)

In more number of days you will need less number of men.

So, the fraction should be less than 1............................(20/25)

In a camp, food was sufficient for 2000 people for 54 days. After 15 days, more people came and the food last only for 20 more days. How many people came?

a)      1900       b) 1800                 c) 1940                  d) 2000

Answer:

We will re-phrase the question

There is food for 2000 people for (54 – 15 = 39) days. Food lasted for 20 days. So, how many people where there.

= 2000 x (39/20) = 3900

So, extra people who joined was = 3900 – 2000 = 1900

answer is a

How to solve problems using chain rule

In a dairy farm, 40 cows eat 40 bags of husk in 40 days. In how many days one cow will eat one bag of husk?

a.       1              b.  40                     c. 20                       d. 26

Answer:

What do we need to find? ... the number of days.

So, first record the day data given =  40 x ..................       (1)

Next go to the other variables. First, consider the number of cows.

Since the number of cows is decreasing, the husk will last more number of days. Whenever there is more, your multiplication factor should be greater than 1. So, (40/1)  ------ (2)

Second variable is bags of husk

Since the number of bags of husk is decreasing, the husk will last less number of days. Whenever there is less, your multiplication factor should be less than 1. So, (1/40) ------ (3)

Therefore, total number of days = 40 x (40/1) x (1/40) = 40 days   ...............(1) x (2) x (3)

Answer is B.

In a camp, there is a meal for 120 men or 200 children. If 150 children have taken the meal, how many men will be catered to with remaining meal?

a)      50                           b) 40                      c) 30                       d) 10

Answer:

150 children = 120 x (150/200) men = 90 men

So, balance number of men = 120 – 90 = 30

 3 pumps, working 8 hours a day, can empty a tank in 2 days. How many hours a day should 4 pumps work in order to empty the tank in 1 day?

a)      10                           b) 12                      c) 8                         d) 15

Answer:

= 8 x (3/4) x(2/1) = 12 hours

Note the factor   ----  ¾

More number of pumps will take less number of hours to do the job. less means fraction should be less than 1. So, ¾ and not 4/3.

Now, note the factor   2/1

In job is to be completed in less number of days, more hour of work is required. More means the fraction should be more than 1. So, 2/1 and not ½.

Remember, that relationship has to be established strictly with the variable you have to find.

21 goats eat as much as 15 cows. How many goats eat as much as 35 cows?

a)      49                           b)32                       c)36                        d)41

Answer:

 21 x (35/15) = 49

More number of cows means more the number of goats. So, the multiplication factor should be more than 1. So, fraction will be (35/15) and not (15/35)

A fort had provision of food for 150 men for 45 days. After 10 days, 25 men left the fort. Find out the number of days for which the remaining food will last.

a)      45                           b) 42                      c)40                        d)38

Answer:

We can rewrite the above question as, “the fort has provision for 150 men for (45 – 10 = 35) days. How many days will the provision last for (150 – 25 = 125) men”

 35 x (150/125) = 42 days

Answer is b

Note: less number of men means provision will last more number of days. More means fraction should be greater than 1. So, fraction is (150/125) and not (125/150).
