PARAG KAMRA  (11 years ago)

the answer is 10 because either 2 large cakes or 35 small cakes per h0ur can make
2 large cakes can make in 1 hour by 1 helper
10 helper can make 20 large cake in 1 hour
same as 35 small cakes per hr by one helper
10 helper can make 350 smaller cake in 1 hour
10 helper can make 700 smaller cake in 2 hour
as per ques kitchen is available for 3 hours

so for 20 large cakes and 700 small cakes 10 helpers are required(ans)

FOR MAKING 20 LARGE CAKES WE NEED 10 HELPERS,WHILE TO MAKE 700 SMALL CAKES WE NEED 20 HELPER, TOTAL 30 HELPER NEEDED BUT IN 1 HR THEY MADE AS REQUIRED....
THE KITCHEN IS AVAILABLE FOR 3 HR SO WE NEED 30/3=10 HELPER....

In 1 hour 2 large cakes by 1 helper
therefore, 20 latge cakes are made bye 20/2= 10 people in 1 hour.
Remaining is 2 hours in which 700 small cakes r to be made.

If in 1 hour 35 small cakes can be made, then in 2 hours 70 cakes can be made by 1 helper.
therefore to make 700 small cake in 2 hour, we need 10 helpers. in 1st 1 hour ten helper hv cmpleted dere work..so they are free to complete rest f work in 2 hour.
Thus, the answer is a.10 :)
