Answer 2

Answer:

Food will be sufficient for 32 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The food in canteen is sufficient for 800 men for 28 days. 100 men leave the canteen in starting only.

To find: For how many days the food will be sufficient for remaining 700 men.

Solution: Let the number of days for which food will be sufficient for remaining men be x.

Total food in canteen = 800 * 28 = 22400 units

Remaining men = 800 - 100 = 700

⇒ Total food in canteen = (Remaining men) * (Number of days)

⇒ 22400 = 700 * x

or x = 22400 / 700

or x = 32

So, the food will be sufficient for 32 days.
