3 cats, 3 rats in 3 minutes means that each cat finishes one rat in 3 minutes. 100 cats would be able to eat 100 rats in 3 minutes, as long as they don't get sidetracked into fighting or mating that is.

It would take five minutes. Because each cat who caught a mouse worked for five minutes no matter how many their were. Therefore you could have a million cats catch a million mice and it would still take five minutes, or 2 cats catch 2 mice in five minutes. 99% of people get this question wrong by going with their gut instinct and saying 100 mins.

Five cats kill five rats in five minutes then how many cats needed to kill 100 rats in 50 minutes?

If 5 Cats kill 5 Rats in 5 minutes that equals 1 rat killed each minute by each cat. So, in twice as many minutes the same ammount of cats will kill twice as many rats... 5 cats will kill 10 rats in 10 minutes. And if left for five times as long, which is 50 minutes, those same 5 cats will kill 50 rats. So obviously you will need twice as many cats to kill twice as many rats in the same time. So the answer is... You will need 10 cats to kill 100 rats in 50 minutes.
