Answer» Remaining food for 100 days 100 day is the right answer remaining food for 100 days Given that 1000 soldiers have enough food for 180 days. Hence After 20 days, the remaining food is sufficient for 180 - 20 = 160 days. Given Remaining soldiers after 20 days = 1000 + 600 = 1600. Let the remaining food be x. 1000 : 1600 :: x : 160 1000 * 160 = 1600x 160000 = 1600x x = 100 days. The remaining food lasts for 100 days Given that 1000 soldiers have enough food for 180 days. Hence After 20 days, the remaining food is sufficient for 180 - 20 = 160 days. Given Remaining soldiers after 20 days = 1000 + 600 = 1600. Let the remaining food be x. 1000 : 1600 :: x : 160 1000 * 160 = 1600x 160000 = 1600x x = 100 days. The remaining food lasts for 100 days. Plz like my answer and accepted as bestPlz |
