Question

At a florist's shop two assistants made 13 flower arrangements in a certain amount of time. Assuming all assistants will work for the same amount of time and each assistant is trained to work at the same rate, how many assistants are needed to make: 195 arrangements

Answer 1

You would do 195/ 13 = 15 and then 15 * 2 which is 30. It would take 30 assistants

Answer 2

Number of assistants required to make 13 flower arrangements = 2

Let us use unitary method here.

Number of assistants required to make 1 flower arrangements = 2/13

Number of assistants required to make 195 flower arrangements = 2/13 *195 =30

Answer : So 30 assistants are required to make 195 flower arrangements.
