Correct Answer: 30 days


Solution : $M_1$ = 100, $D_1$ = 9 days, $W_1$ = 540 kg
$M_2$ = 50, $W_2$ = 900 kg
where $M_1, M_2$ are numbers of cows, $D_1, D_2$ are days, and $W_1, W_2$ are weight of grass.
We know, $\frac{M_1 × D_1}{W_1}$ = $\frac{M_2 × D_2}{W_2}$
⇒ $\frac{100 × 9}{540}$ = $\frac{50 × D_2}{900}$
$\therefore D_2$ = $\frac{100 × 9 × 900}{540 × 50}$ = 30 days
Hence, the correct answer is 30 days.
