Buckets of cement needed is 5 and sand needed is 20

Solution:

Given that Concrete tiles are made using buckets of cement, sand and gravel mixed in the ratio 1 : 4 : 6

cement : sand : gravel = 1 : 4 : 6

Let the cement needed be "1x"

Let the sand needed be "4x"

Let the gravel needed be "6x"

Given that 20 buckets of sand used

4x = 20

x = 5

Thus buckets of cement needed = 1x = 1(5) = 5

Buckets of sand needed = 4x = 4(5) = 20

5 buckets of cement and 20 buckets of sand are needed
