Answer:
Food will last 26 more days
32 Days (total)
Step-by-step explanation:
In a fort there were 1300 soldiers and had enough food to last for 28 days
=> total Food available = 1300 * 28 Man Days
Food consumed in 6 days = 1300 * 6 Man days
Food remaining after 6 days = 1300 * 28 - 1300 * 6
= 1300 * 22
After 6 days, 200 soldiers left the fort.
remaining soldiers = 1300 - 200 = 1100
Food will survive for = 1300 * 22 /1100
= 13 * 22 / 11
= 13 * 2
= 26
26 + 6 = 32 Days ( total)
Food will last 26 more days
