The amount of hay in a barn will feed 40 cows for 12 weeks.
For how many weeks could you feed 15 cows with the same amount of hay?

@Gentlemickey 40 divided by 15 =2 2/3 ...2 2/3 times 12= 32 weeks
It's simple..
(40*12)/15
32
(40*12)/15
32

If each cow eats 1 hay unit/week, you have 40*12=480 hay units. So if you divide split those 480 hay units between 15 cows. (480/15) you get the answer.
