Question

At a camp , there is enough food for 50 scrouts for 6 days



If 10 more scrouts join the camp, how long will the food last?

Answer 1

$\huge \boxed{\pink\star\mathfrak\orange{\large{\underline{\underline{Answer!}}}} }$

Let the number of days the food to be lasted to x days

After 10 days more scrouts join, the number of scrouts in the camp= 60

More scrouts, less the number of days, the food will last.

So, it is a case of inverse proportion.

Hence,

$\bold{ \frac{50}{60} = \frac{x}{6} }$

$\implies \bold{x = \frac{50 \times 6}{60} }$

⟹$\boxed{\bold\red{x=5}}$

Hence, the food will last for 5 days
