Twelve persons can make 360 toys in 8 days. If three more persons join them, then how many toys can be made in 8 days?

A

370

B

369

C

450

D

359

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The number of toys is directly proportional to the number of persons working. (Number of days is constant). Let the required number of persons be x.
`therefore (12)/(15) = (360)/(x) rArr x = 450`
`therefore ` 15 persons can make 450 toys in 8 days.
Hence, the correct option is (c).
