Question

120 men had provisions for 200 days. After 5 days, 30 men died due to an epidemic. Then how long remaining food will last for

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The food provision is sufficient for 120*200 = 24000 man-days. In 5 days the provision consumed by 120 men = 120*5 = 600 man-days. Remaining provisions = 24000 - 600 = 23400 man-days. Men remaining after 5 days = 120 - 30 = 90 men.
