360 kg of corn would feed 21 horses for (42/270)(360) days

360 kg of corn would feed 21 horses for 56 days

Thankyou for helping.

Well, let's do some corny calculations! If 270kg of corn feeds 42 horses for 21 days, we can find out how much corn a single horse eats per day. So, 270kg of corn divided by 42 horses gives us 6.428571428571428kg per horse per day. Now, we can use this corny information to answer your question! If we have 360kg of corn and we want to feed only 21 horses, each horse would get 360kg divided by 21 horses, which is 17.142857142857142kg per horse per day. Now, let me calculate how many days this would feed them... Hmm.. Hold on while I divide.... Okay, the answer is... 21! Ta-da! It looks like 360kg of corn would also feed 21 horses for 21 days, just like the first scenario. Isn't that cornvenient? You've got a very efficient group of horses there!

To find out how many days 360kg of corn would feed 21 horses, we can set up a proportion using the given information.

First, we need to establish the relationship between the amount of corn and the number of horses. We can do this by dividing the total weight of corn by the number of horses. In this case, for 270kg of corn, it feeds 42 horses.

So, 270kg / 42 horses = 6.43kg/horse

Now, we can use this ratio to find out how long 360kg of corn would feed 21 horses.

360kg / 6.43kg/horse = 55.9 horses

This means that 360kg of corn would feed 55.9 horses for the same duration required to feed 21 horses.

Since we cannot have a fraction of a horse, we need to round down the number of horses to the nearest whole number. Therefore, 360kg of corn would feed 21 horses for approximately 55 days.
