In a certain factory, each of a workers produce b pairs of shoes every c hours. If the workers work around the clock without any breaks, how many days are required to produce 1,000 pairs of shoes?
(A) 125c/3ab
(B) 1000c/ab
(C) 3a/125bc
(D) 3c/125ab
(E) 125ab/3c
The way I solve this problem,
it will take a*c man hours to produce b pairs of shoes. so for making 1 pair of shoes it will take ac/b man hours.
Now to make 1000 pair of shoes it will take 1000ac/b man hours. if I divide by number of workers i.e. a I will get man hours for all workers 1000ac/ba or 1000c/b
to get days, will divide the above equation by 24. that will give me 125c/3b, but I do not have that answer at all. OA a
