Answer 1

Answer:

hllw

Step-by-step explanation:

There is enough food for 500 soldiers for 30 days. Say that each soldier has one unit of food a day. So there are 500 units for one day and 500 × 30 = 15000 units for the 30 days. So as per the question after 6 days some soldiers left the fort, it means 500 × 6 = 3000 units are consumed by the time some soldiers left.

Answer 2

Answer:

67 soldiers left the fort
