Step-by-step explanation:
In an army camp ration is available for 100 soldiers for 10 days. After 2 days, 60 soldiers joined. How many more days will the remaining ration last?
Rule the new normal!
5 more days
Let us say that a soldier eats 'n' units of food in a day.
Total ration available = 100 soldiers * 10 days * n = 1000n
In 2 days, 100 soldiers would consume = 100n*2 = 200n
Remaining food = 1000n - 200n = 800n
Number of soldiers = 100 + 60 = 160
Amount of food these soldiers will eat in a day = 160n
Number of days the food will last = 800n / 160n = 5 days
In an army camp, there are 800 soldiers. There is enough food for them for 60 days. If 400 more soldiers arrive at the camp after 10 days, how many days will the food last?
An army camp had food provisions for 150 men for 45 days. After 10 days 25 men left the camp. How long will the food last?
In a camp of 4400 men there was stock of food for 80 days. After 25 days a few men joined the camp and the remaining food lasted for another 40 days more. How many men joined after 25 days?
In a camp of 2,000 soldiers, there were provisions for 25 days. After 10 days, 1,000 soldiers have left the camp. For how many days would the remaining provisions last?
An army camp of 250 soldiers had provisions for 44 days. A fresh batch of 300 soldiers joined the camp. For how many days will the provisions last?
5 days
{ It is a indirect proportion question
No. of days is inversely proportional to no of soldiers }
100 soldiers — 10days
After two days, food is left for 8 days
100 soldiers → 8 days
60 more joins them
160 soldiers → x days
Since the amount of food is not changed, amount of food consumed by 100 soldiers in 8 days is equal to food consumed by 160 soldiers in x days.
Definitely x will be less than 8.
Since no. of soldiers increase no of days decrease.
100*8 = 160*x
800 = 160*x
800/ 160 =x
80/16 =x
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Total stock of food will be enough for 1000*62*2 individual meals.
since 380 people did not come, the food has to suffice for 620*4 individual meals a day.
Let d be no of days for which the food was suffice for 620 people (4meals a day)
1000*62*2=620*d*4
d= 50 days
