One boy can eat 100 chocolates in half a minute, and another can eat half as many in twice the length of time. How many chocolates can both boys eat in 15 seconds?

• 1st boy eats 100 chocos / 30 sec
  so he can eat 50 in 15 sec
  
  2nd boy can eat one-half of 100 in twice of 30 sec
  so he can eat 50 in 60 sec
  or that is 12.5 in 15 sec
  
  so, together they can eat
  50 + 12.5 or
  62.5 chocolates in 15 seconds.

• One boy can eat 100 chocolates in half a minute, and another can eat half as many in twice the length of time.
  so second boy eats 50 choclates in 1 minute.
  so both can eat 100/ 2 + 50/4 = 50+12.5 = 62.5 choclates in 15 secs.

• A can eat 100 in 30 sec. that implies that he eat in 1 sec.=10/3 choclates
  B can eat 50 in 60 sec. that implies that he eat in 1 sec.=5/6 choclates
  They eat both as:
  10/3+5/6=25/6
  multiply by 15 sec to get the answer=62.5 choclates

• First boy eat 50 chocolate in 15min
  Second boy eat 50 chocolate in 2*30 min
  So he second eat 12.5 in 15 min.
  Total=50+12.5=62.5 chocolate in 15 minutes.
