by the way, what is rule of 3 and rule of 5 ???

zorrillo · 08-08-2005, 02:53 PM

Rule of 3:

A car travels 50 km in 30 mins. How many kms does it travel in 15 mins?

30 mins == 50 kms
15 mins == ?

Rule of 5:

3 machines print 25 pages in 40 secs. How many pages do 5 machines of the same type print in 20 secs?

3 machines == 40 sec == 25 pages
5 machines == 20 sec == ?

Easy. They are called so because of the number of terms involved; 3 and 5 resp.
