Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: the hostel has ration for 60 students for 500. After 12 days 300 students joined. remaining ration has 48 days

Answer 2

The number of days for which the remaining Ration will last is 30 days.

Given,

Ration available → 60 Days for 500 students

After 12 Days 300 more students joined

Find,

Number of days the remaining Ration will last

Solution,

It can be said that,

Ration = Students x Days

Initial Ration = 500 x 60

Initial Ration = 30000

Ration finished in 12 days = 500 x 12

Ration finished in 12 days = 6000

Remaining Ration = 30000 - 6000

Remaining Ration = 24000

New Students = 300

Thus, Total Students = 500 + 300 = 800

Now,

Let the number of days for which the remaining Ration will last = d

24000 = 800 x d

d = $\frac{24000}{800}$

d = 30

Hence, the remaining Ration will last for the next 30 days.
