6 cats kill 6 rats in 6 minutes .how many cats will be
needed to kill 100 rats in 50 minutes?

Answer Posted / lava kumar

Answer is very simple.
The ratio is Cats:Rats:Time
1:1:6
we have to maintain the same ratio
but the given ratio is
x:2:1
Therefore take the last two terms 2:1 has to be
made to 1:6
That is div by 2 and mul by 12 we get 12:12:72
therefore number of cats=12.
