Question

150 litres of water is flowing through a pipe in 6 minutes. If 200 litres of water flows through it in 8 minutes check whether the quantity of water and time of flow are proportional ?

Answer 1

Quantity of water flowing in 6 minutes = 150 litres

Ratio between the quantity of water and time of flow= 150: 6 = 25: 1

Quantity of water flowing in 8 minutes = 200 litres

Ratio between quantity of water and times of flow = 200 : 8 = 25: 1

Since the radios are equal, the amount of water flowing and the time of flow are proportional.
