Question

Solve with the formula of direct or indirect proportion please​​

Answer 1

Answer:

12 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let no. of persons be 'P'

Let days be 'F'

P  :  1200    1500

F  :    15          'x'

P is 1200 persons and F is the no. of  days the food will last for  1200 persons.

1500 = 1200 + 300 persons (as mentioned in the question)

It is inversely proportional, as the days left will reduce if the no. of people increase, and vice versa...

So, 1200 * 15  =  1500 * x

18,000 = 1500x

So, x = 12

∴ If 300 more men arrive in a group  of 1200 people, the food will last for only 12 days instead of 15 days.
