Answer:

Number of workers on a job and time taken by them to complete the job

Number of pipes of same SIZE to fill a tank and the time taken by them to fill the tank

Step-by-step explanation:

following statements are of inverse variation :

1. Number of workers on a job and time taken by them to complete the job.

As number of Workers INCREASE time Taken is Decreased

Time Taken by Workers = Total Work Done / number of Workers

2.  Number of pipes of same size to fill a tank and the time taken by them to fill the tank.

As Number of pipes increase time Taken is Decreased

Time Taken by pipes = Tank FILLED / Number of Pipes

Following Statements are of DIRECT proportion :

Petrol filled in the tank of a vehicle and its cost

Cost = Petrol filled   * Petrol Price

Area of circle and its radius.

Area of circle ∝ Radius²
