Answer 1

Answer:

24 days

Explanation:

Given,

A garrison of 120 men has a provision for 30 days.

120 men*30 days

At the end of fi e days,five more men joined them.

for 5 days 120 men had provision

5 men joined after 5 days

let 125 men can sustain in x days

total=120 men had provision for 5 days+ 125 men have to sustain for x days

120*30=120*5+125*x

3600-600=125x

3000=125x

x=24 days
