Q21. 500 soldiers in a fort had enough food for 30 days. After 6 days, some soldiers were
sent to another fort and thus the food lasted for 32 more days. How many soldiers left the fort

Answer 1

Answer:

125 soldiers

Step-by-step explanation:

• soldiers = 500. x
• food = 30 - 6. 32

24

it is an inverse variation

as we know that the formula of inverse variation

x1 * x2 = y1 * y2

500 * 24 = x * 32

x = 500 * 24 /32

x = 375

hence soldiers left the fort

500 - 375

= 125 soldiers
