Question

An NCC camp has provisions for 600 cadets to last for 10 days. How many cadets must be transferred to
another camp so that the provisions in this camp last for 15 days?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x cadets will by their till 15 days.

Since 600 cadets can stay till 10 days hence they can manage till 15 days also

600 * 10 = 15 * x

x=600*10/15= 400 cadets

400 cadets can stay till 15 days

Hence 600-400= 200 cadets must be transferred to another camp so that the provisions (like food etc.) in this camp last for 15 days
