If 30 persons can consume 20 kg of flour in 25 days. How much of the flour will 15 persons consume in 30 days?

Explanation

First, find the consumption rate per person per day:

30 persons consume 20 kg in 25 days

Total consumption per day for 30 persons = 20 kg / 25 days = 0.8 kg/day

Consumption per person per day = 0.8 kg/day / 30 persons = 0.02667 kg/person/day

Now, find the consumption for 15 persons in 30 days:

Total consumption = 15 persons × 0.02667 kg/person/day × 30 days

= 15 × 0.8

= 12 kg
