b. If only half as much milk is used each day, after how many days will more milk need to be purchased?

Answer:

explained

Step-by-step explanation:

a. daily requirement of milk = 4 liters

15 liters of milk is present

this 15 liters of milk will be used up in [tex]\frac{15}{4}[/tex] days

= 3(3/4) days , so after 3 days only more milk will be required to purchase.

b. daily milk consumption is reduced to half = 2 liters

Now, 15 liters of milk will be used up in [tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex]= 7.5 or 7(1/2) days.

Hence now milk will be purchased after 7 days.
