Answer:
1.) 50 books
2.) 16 days
3.) 14 days
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) length of book shelf = 80 x 4cm = 320cm.
6.4cm book that can fit = 320cm / 6.4cm = 50 books
2.) Let x be the days
20 birds · 20days = 25 birds (x)
x = 20(20)/25
x = 16 days
3.) let x be the days
10men ( 7 days) = 5men (x)
x = 10(7) / 5
x = 14 days
