Answer 2

Answer:

10 DAYS

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially there were 500 scouts who had provision for 12 days so,now I can say that due to the increasing number of students then provision will decrease so it is a case of Inverse proportion which states that however the number change,their product will be same that is,

500×12=600×S (s = provision for 600 scouts )

6000=600×S

6000/600=S

S=10

So,the provision would last for 10 days
