Question

Duryab's garden has a lot of Apple trees. 140 apples fall on ground in 35 seconds. How many apples fall in one seconds?​

Answer 1

4 apples

Explanation:

Here we apply the unitary method. That's quite helpful.

140 apples fall in 35 seconds.

I'll show how to solve any such questions without any formula, considering the fall of apple is linear with time or directly proportional.

• 140 apples = Fall in 35 s
• In 1 sec, 140/ 35 = 4 apples fall

We have to think whether the quantities are directly proportional or indirectly proportional. If you want to know on it, comment below.

Answer 2

4 apples fall in one second.

Explanation:

In order to find the number of apples that fall in one second, we can divide the total number of apples that fall by the total time in seconds.

`\sf \textsf{Number of apples falling in one second} = \frac{\textsf{Total number of apples falling }}{\textsf{Total time in seconds}}`

In this case:

we have:

• Total number of apples falling = 140 apples
• Total time in seconds = 35 seconds

Substitute the given value:

`\sf \textsf{Number of apples falling in one second} = (140)/( 35) \\\\ \sf = 4 \textsf{apples per second }`

Therefore, 4 apples fall in one seconds.
