Question

in a fort 150 men had provisions for 45 days.after 10 days ,25 men left the fort. how long would the food last at the same rate ( in inverse variation)​

Answer 1

Answer:

After 10 days :

For 150 men, provision will last (45 – 10)

Days = 365 days

⇒ For 1 man, the provisions will last

= 150 × 35 days

And for (150 – 25) = 125 men, the provisions

Will last for = (150 × 35)/125 = 42 days
