Given:

If 21 cows eat as much as 15 buffaloes, how many cows will eat as much as 35 buffaloes?

Formula used:

Let the number of cows be x that eat as much as 35 buffaloes.

We use the ratio:

21 cows / 15 buffaloes = x cows / 35 buffaloes

Calculation:

21 / 15 = x / 35

⇒ x = (21 × 35) / 15

⇒ x = 49

∴ The correct answer is option (1).
