Answer:
answer is 24 days
Step-by-step explanation:
A garrison of 120 men has provision for 30 days. At the end of 5 days, 5 more men joined them. How many days can they sustain on the remaining provision?
For 120 men there is provision for 30 days
If 1 man needs 1 unit of provision in a day then
Total provision = 120*30 = 3600 units
120 men in 5 days will take = 120*5 = 600 units of provision
Remaining provision = 3600–600 = 3000 units
5 more men joined and now there are total 125 men
1 day provision requirement for 125 men = 125 units
Days for which they can sustain on remaining provision = 3000/125 = 24 days (Ans)
