What country has three times as many sheep as people?
Australia has 120 million sheep and about 20 millions of population. New Zealand has 3 million people and 60 million sheep. There are about 36 million sheep in the UK and about 60 million people. Argentina has about 14 million sheep and a population of nearly 40 million. So your answer may be Argentina.
A farmer has 18 sheep all but 8 die how many are still standing?
The answer is provided within the riddle.The farmer has 18 sheep, all but 8 die. That means 10 sheep die, and 8 are left.This question is not about arithmetic, but reading comprehension. You don't want to calculate 18-8=10; that's what makes the riddle tricky. You need to know that "all but 8" means "all the sheep except 8."
A lion could eat a sheep in 4 hours A leapord could eat one in 5 hours A bear could eat one in 6 hours How long would it take for all of them to devour a sheep if it were thrown among them?
Lion eats 1/4 sheep per hour.Leopard eats 1/5 sheep per hour.Bear eats 1/6 sheep per hour.Working together, they can eat (1/4) + (1/5) + (1/6) sheep per hour.(1/4) + (1/5) + (1/6) = (15/60) + (12/60) + (10/60) = 37/60 sheep per hour.60/37 hours per sheep = 1.6216 hours = 1hr 37min 17.84sec (rounded)
If it takes a lion 2 hours to devour a sheep a wolf 3 hours to devour a sheep and a dog 5 hours to devour a sheep How long would it take to devour one sheep if they all ate at the same time?
The way to solve this kind of problem is to calculate how much each animal eats in an hour, and add the fractions. (Of course, some assumptions are being made, mainly, that the lions eat at the same rate all the time.)In an hour, the lion eats 1/2 sheep, the wolf 1/3 sheep, and the dog, 1/5 sheep. Adding the fraction:1/2 + 1/3 + 1/5 = 15/30 + 10/30 + 6/30 = 31/30. The time it takes all together is the reciprocal of this: 30/31 of an hour, approximately 58 minutes.
What is 23 times 2 squred by 6?
