Question

a camp is provided with provision for 70 soldiers for 50 days. how long would the food last if 10 additional soldiers join after 10 days?

Answer 1

Steps :

1. 70 * 50 =3500

2. In 10 days, 70 * 100 = 700

    Remaining food = 3500 - 700

                               = 2800

3. New Soldiers Joined = 70 + 10

                                        = 80

The food last = 2800/80

                      = 35 days


Hope this helps!
