If 25kg feed was consumed by 10,000 birds in six hours, determine the quantity of feed required by the same number of birds in one week?
Answer Details
To solve this problem, we need to first calculate the birds' feed consumption rate per day and then multiply it by the number of days in a week.
The birds consumed 25kg of feed in 6 hours, which is 1/4th of a day (since there are 24 hours in a day). So, their feed consumption rate per day is:
25 kg ÷ 1/4 day = 100 kg/day
To calculate the feed required by the same number of birds in one week (7 days), we simply multiply the daily feed consumption rate by the number of days:
100 kg/day x 7 days = 700 kg
Therefore, the quantity of feed required by the same number of birds in one week is 700kg. Hence the answer is.
