26 potters will be required to make 169 pots in 4 days.
Given: 11 potters can make 143 pots in 8 days.
Step 1:
1 potter makes 143 pots in 8 × 11 days.
1 potter can make 1 pot in
(8 × 11)/143 days.
Step 2:
Let the number of potters required be x, then
x potters can make 1 pot in (8 × 11)/( 143 × x) days
x potters can make 169 pots in (8 × 11 × 169)/(143 × x ) days
Step 3:
The number of days given is 4. Hence equating the above equation to 4.
(8 × 11 × 169)/(143 × x ) = 4
Step 4:
Solve for x
14872/(143x) = 4
572x = 14872
x = 14872/572
x = 26
Thus, 26 potters will be required to make 169 pots in 4 days.
