Work in for 300 men had provision for 90 days after 20 days 50 mens left . How long would the food last at the same rate
Answers
Answer:
First 90 days were there but at present days are left 90-20= 70 days
There were 300 men but 50 men then left,
Remaining one's= 300-50= 250 men
So, provision for 300 men= 70 days
Provision for 250 men will be = x
As its indirect variation, so formula
70/x= 250/300
70×300/250= x
2100/25= x
420/5= x
84= x

No. of days left = (90-20)
= 70 days
No. of men remain = ( 300-50)
= 250 men
For 300 men, the remaining food would be lasted for 70 days
∴ For 1 man the remaining food would be last for (300×70) days
∴ For 250 men the remaining food would be continued for {(300×70)÷250}
={(6×70)÷5}
= (6×14)
= 84 days
∴ The remaining food be lasted for 84 days.
