C. 7
D. 49
Answer: Option C
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Let the required number days be x.Less spiders, More days (Indirect Proportion)
Less webs, Less days (Direct Proportion)
\[\left. \begin{gathered} {\text{Spiders}}\,\,\,\,\,1:7 \hfill \\ \,\,\,{\text{Webs}}\,\,\,\,\,7:1 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \right\}::7:x\]
$$\eqalign{ & \therefore 1 \times 7 \times x = 7 \times 1 \times 7 \cr & \Rightarrow x = 7 \cr} $$
