Question

If 6 people can walk 12 dogs, how many people are needed to walk 24 dogs

Answer 1

12 people can walk 24 dogs.

Explanation:

Given information,

→ 6 people can walk 12 dogs.

→ People required for 24 dogs = ?

Let us assume that,

→ Missing value = p

Forming the equation,

→ 6/12 = p/24

Then the value of p will be,

→ 6/12 = p/24

→ p/24 = 6/12

→ p × 12 = 6 × 24

→ 12p = 144

→ p = 144/12

→ [ p = 12 ]

Hence, the value of p is 12.
