1. 1000
2. 1125
3. 1340
4. 1220

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : 1125

Calculation:

10 women working for 8 hours can make 300 handmade bags in 75 days

⇒ 10 × 8 × 75 can make 300 handmade bags.

Let 25 women working for 10 hours can make m handmade bags in 90 days.

As we know, number of working hours is directly proportional to the number of handmade bags that can be made.

⇒ (10 × 8 × 75) : (25 × 10 × 90) = 300 : m

⇒ 300 : m = 4 : 15

⇒ m = 1125

∴ Number of handmade bags made by 25 women is 1125.
