If 7 spiders make 7 webs in 7 days, then 1 spider will make 1 web in how many days?

A. 1

B. \[\frac{7}{2}\]

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)
\[\left. \begin{gathered} {\text{Spiders}}\,\,\,\,\,1:7 \hfill \\ \,\,\,{\text{Webs}}\,\,\,\,\,7:1 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \right\}::7:x\]
$$\eqalign{ & \therefore 1 \times 7 \times x = 7 \times 1 \times 7 \cr & \Rightarrow x = 7 \cr} $$
