1 cat catches 1 rat every 5 minutes.
1 cat catches 20 rats in 100 minutes.
Therefore 5 cats would catch 100 rats in 100 minutes.
C=Cat
R=Rat
M=Minute
1C=1R in 5M
5C=5R in 5M
1C=20R in 100M
100M divide 20R= 5C
so 5C catches 5R in 100M

Five cats kill five rats in five minutes then how many cats needed to kill 100 rats in 50 minutes?
If 5 Cats kill 5 Rats in 5 minutes that equals 1 rat killed each minute by each cat. So, in twice as many minutes the same ammount of cats will kill twice as many rats... 5 cats will kill 10 rats in 10 minutes. And if left for five times as long, which is 50 minutes, those same 5 cats will kill 50 rats. So obviously you will need twice as many cats to kill twice as many rats in the same time. So the answer is... You will need 10 cats to kill 100 rats in 50 minutes.
If one and a half cats catch one and a half rats in one and a half minutes How many rats can three cats catch in two minutes?
none they are vegitarian :)
If 3 cats catch 3 rats in 3 minutes how many cats will catch 100 rats in 100 minutes?
1, 1 cat catches 1 rat in 1 minute...... SO, one cat will catch 100 rats in 100 minutes, assuming no feline fatigue element, and assuming the rats do not become more experienced in evasion, at the given rate of one rat per minute per cat.
If three cats can kill three rats in three minutes how long will it take 33 cats to kill 33 rats?
It will take 3 minutes if you look at this problem mathematically. Both scenarios have a ratio of 1 rat to 1 cat. 3 minutes multiplied by 1/1 equals 3 minutes.
Do cats eat rats?

If 5 cats catch 5 rats in 5 minutes how many cats will it take to catch 100 rats in 100 minutes?

If three cats kill three rats in three minutes then how many minutes will 100 cats take to kill 100 rats?
It would still take 3 minutes according to the setup of the question, assuming there are enough rats to make this work. It takes 1 cat 3 minutes to find a rat, and 3 minutes for 3 cats to each find a rat. So 100 cats would only take 3 minutes to find 100 rats. Time is irrelevant since the only factors changing are the cats and the rats. However, this question assumes too many things that would likely not happen. The question assumes an even density of rats, that the cat's are equally able to catch rats, and that there are enough rats.
If 6 cats kill 6 rats in 6 minutes how long would it take for 3 cats to kill 3 rats?
3 minutes
If it took three minutes for three cats to kill three rats how long will it take 100 cats to kill 100 rats?
Three minutes
How many cats can catch 100 rats in 100 minutes if 5 cats can catch 5 rats in 5 minutes?
I assume those 5 cats are working simultaneously. If you give those 5 cats 20 times the minutes (5min x 20 = 100min), they are gonna catch 20 times the rats (5 rats x 20 = 100 rats). So 5 cats can catch 100 rats in 100 minutes.
If 10 cats can kill 10 rats in 10 minutes how long will it take 100 cats to kill 100 rats?
10 cats For future reference, this problem is solved as follows: Let C1 be the number of cats who eat O1 rats in T1 minutes and Let C2 be the number of cats who eat O2 rats in T2 minutes C1T1/O1 = C2T2/O2 solve C2 = O2C1T1/O1T2 C2 = 100x5x5/ (5x50) = 10 cats
When you know it takes five cats five minutes to catch five mice how long will it take for 100 cats to catch 100 mice?
3 cats, 3 rats in 3 minutes means that each cat finishes one rat in 3 minutes. 100 cats would be able to eat 100 rats in 3 minutes, as long as they don't get sidetracked into fighting or mating that is.
