3 buffaloes eat as much as 4 cows or 2 oxen. At a farm, there are 15 buffaloes, 8 oxen, and 24 cows. The fodder for these cattle is available for 36 days. If 40 more cows and 15 more buffaloes are brought in, how many days will the fodder last?	Choose the correct choice from the following answers: A) 15 days B) 18 days C) 21 days D) 24 days E) 27 days

Rationale: "2 oxen = 3 buffaloes = 4 cows also : 15 buffaloes + 8 oxen + 24 cows = 10 oxen + 8 oxen + 12 oxen = 30 oxen there is enough fodder for 1 oxen for 30 * 36 days . 40 cows + 15 buffaloes = 20 oxen + 10 oxen = 30 oxen the new total is equal to 60 oxen instead of 30 oxen . 30 * 36 / 60 oxen = 18 days the answer is b ."
Answer: B
