• 8 monkeys take 8 mins to eat 8 bans.
  
  so, 1 monkey take 8 min to eat 1 banana.
  
  if 1 monkey eat for 48 mins it will eat 6 bananas
  
  there are 48 bananas, so we need 8 monkeys giving 6 bananas each
  Ans=8(monkeys)

• A)
  8 MONKEY EAT 8 BANANAS IN 8 MINUTE
  
  IT MEANS EACH MONKEY IS GETTING 1 BANANA AND EATING IT IN 8 MINUTES SINCE THEY
  ARE EATING SIMULTANEOUSLY.
  THEREFORE 3 BANANAS FOR 3 MONKEYS WILL GIVE THEM 1 BANANA TO 1 MONKEY
  SO IT WILL TAKE 8 MINUTES
  b)
  8 MONKEYS WILL EAT 8 BANANAS IN 8 MINUTES
  SO 8 MONKEYS WILL EAT 48 BANANAS IN 48 MINUTES

• a)by question we can say that each monkey take 8mins to eat 1 banana. so 3 monkeys will eat 3 bananas in 8mins only.
  b)similarly 48 bananas in 48 minutes
  48mins/8=6. so 6 monkeys wil eat 48 bananas in 48 minutes.
