Other assumptions associated with this question are as follows:
- One person can feed on 1 hen/day for a year
- 1 hen must east 25 grasshoppers /day
- the total mass of 1000 grasshoppers is 1kg
- 600 grasshoppers are needed to feed 1 human per day
Grasshoppers is represented as Gh.
The total amount needed to feed the hen per year is:
- If expressed in Kg, then it would be 9,125/1000 which is
- = 9.125Kg/annum.
So if the farmer chose to live on grasshoppers rather than on hens, the calculation is given as follows:
- (90 kg/1 hour) x (24 hours/1 day) x (1 person/ 600 Gh)
The amount of Grasshoppers required is given as follows;
If the farmer can gather 90 Gh in one hour then,
- The total amount of Gh per day is 90 x 24 = 2,160
- the total amount of Gh available in a year is 2160 x 365 = 788,400 Gh/Year
- If 600 grasshoppers are quired to feed the human per day, then we work backward
- The total amount of Gh available in a day is 788,400/365. This is equal to 2160 Gh
- The total amount of people this can feed is given as 2,160/600
- Which is equal to 3.6 persons.
Since humans or people cannot be divided into fractions like a measure of sugar or a measure of liquid, the answer is best left to the most approximate digit with it 4 Persons.

Light waves are transmitted across the cornea and enter the eyes through the pupil.
<h3>
FURTHER EXPLANATION</h3>
The eyes and the brain are important in helping people see. Light passes through the eyes and this light gets transformed into electrical signals which are sent to the brain that helps make sense of the object that is seen.
<h3 /><h3>How People See</h3>
- Light is incident on an object (or strikes an object). Some of it get absorbed, some are reflected into a human's eye.
- Light that bounces off the object is transmitted across the cornea, the transparent outer layer of the eye. It refracts the light and makes things look sharp and clear.
- Then the light enters the pupil which is the opening in the eye controlled by the iris or the colored part of the eye. The iris changes the size of the pupil and controls the amount of light that enters the eye. When there is bright light, the pupil becomes smaller. In dim light, the opposite happens and the pupil becomes bigger.
- At the back of the pupil is the lens which again helps focus the light. Its shape changes depending on the distances of the objects that is being looked at.
- The light rays are focused by the lens so that they all converge in the retina which is at the back of the eye. The retina has many specialized cells which are sensitive to light. These cells transform light energy into electrical signals or nerve impulses which form a rough inverted image of the object the person is looking at.
- The electrical signals travel to the brain through the optic nerve. The brain turns the image upright and adds more detail to the vision.
