Question

Food for 150 soliders in a fort is sufficient for 20 days.100 more soliders join them. For how many days the food will be sufficient for all the soliders.

Answer 1

Answer:

12 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume each soldier consumes 1 food unit per day.

Then, total number of food units = 150 * 20 = 3000 units

Now, after addition, total number of soldiers = 150 + 100 = 250

Number of days the food will now last is = 3000 / 250 = 12 days
