120 men has food provisions for 200 days. after 5 days 30 man died due to an epidemic. the remaining food last for how many days??
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets assume required food per person per day=x
Food for 120 people for 1 day=120x
Total available food=120x*200(food available for 200 days for 120 people)
Total food =24000x
Food consumed in 5 days=120x*5=600x
Food left after 5 days=24000x-600x=23400x
As 30 people died after 5 days, remaining people 90
Food required for 90 people for day =90x
No of days food can be consumed for 90 people=food left/food consumption per day
=23400x/90x
=260
So theui remaining food will be last for another 260 days
answer
250 days
Step-by-step explanation:
120 mens has food provision for 200 days.
1 men has food provision = 200/120
= 5/3
30 men has food provision =5/3×30
= 50
we know that 30 men died in 5 days and we also know that 200+50
=250 days
