How do you work this out?

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?

Hm..if I was a cow.. I would say 32 weeks?

@SW-User It's 32 but I don't understand how you get that answer since they don't show you how to work it out.

@summerlove Yeah, I'm sleep deprived. Ignore my answer. I got completely befuddled.

@summerlove 40 cows = 12 weeks

40(cows)/15(cows) = 2.6666... something.

2.6666... something times by 12(weeks) = you get something along the lines of 31.something.

I would give you a more detailed working out but like i said.. sleep deprived.
