Can You Find Which Color Cow Gives The Most Milk ?


Puzzle Details : 

4 black cows and 3 brown cows give as much milk in 5 days as 3 black cows and 5 brown cows give in 4 days. Which color cow gives the most milk?

Solution :

let the number of days be = D
number of Black cows be  = L
number of Brown cows be = R

according to the problem statement ==> 4 black cows and 3 brown cows give as much milk in 5 days as 3 black cows and 5 brown cows give in 4 days.

This can be written in the form of equation like this,

5D(4L + 3R) = 4D(3L + 5R)
20DL + 15DR = 12DL + 20DR
20DL - 12DL= 20DR - 15DR
8DL = 5DR
8L = 5R

It is clear from the equation that we would need 8 black cow to give the same amount of milk as 5 brown cows. hence brown cow gives the most milk.
