Question

1200 soldiers in a fort had enough food for 28 days after four days some soldiers were transferred to another fort and thus the food last date now for 32 more days how many soldiers left the fort

Answer 1

Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

Food available was = 28*1200

food consumed in 4 days = 4*1200

Let say x soldier left

Food consumed in 32 more days = 32 * (1200-x)

28*1200 = 4*1200 + 32*(1200-x)

24*1200 = 32*1200 - 32x

32x = 8*1200

x = 300

300 soldiers left
