Answer 2

============================================

Dear student,

Here is the solution of your asked query:

Number of scouts=156

Number of days=15

So, Food for 156 scouts=156×15=2340

(i) When 39 more scouts are added, then number of scouts=156+39=195

So, number of days the food will last = 2340195=12

(ii) When number of days = 26

This means there is enough food for 90 scouts for 26 days.

Therefore, number of scouts should go = 156−90=66
