उत्तर
Let the required time taken to print be x
As the speed increases time taken to print decreases
∴ They are in inverse proportion
Time taken to print 30 pages = 1 min
∴ Time taken to print 300 pages = `300/30` = 10 min
| Time taken to print (in minutes) | 10 | x |
| Number of pages printed per minutes | 30 | 25 |
x1y1 = x2y2
10 × 30 = x × 25
x = `(30 xx 10)/25` = 12 min
Time taken to print = 12 min
