Answer 1

Maharaja's tiger hunt continued to be successful within 10 days he was able to kill 70 tigers. but the Tiger population had became extinct in the forests of his kingdom .
But still there were 30 more tigers to be killed.
so the Maharaja told his diwan that he wanted
to marry in a royal family of a state with large tiger population .
the diwan found the right girl from a state which possessed a large number of tigers .
the Maharaja would kill five or six tigers each time he visited his father in-law . Thus he was able to kill 99 tigers .

Answer 2

The Maharaja would marry to find the required number.

• The question has been asked from the story The Tiger King.
• The king had instructed his personnel to locate a suitable girl for him to wed to get the necessary number of tigers to kill.
• He thought It would be proper to marry a girl who not only hailed from a ruling household but also belonged to a region with a big tiger population.
• Further, a region possessed by his father-in-law will undoubtedly give him the chance to hunt extra tigers as there were no longer any in his territory.
• In this way, he was sure to accomplish his goal of eliminating a hundred tigers.
