A fort had provision of food for 150 men
A fort had provision of food for 150 men for 85 days. After 15 days, 25 men left the fort. Find the number of days for which the remaining food will last.
एक किले में 150 पुरूषों के लिए 85 दिनों के भोजन का प्रबंध था। 15 दिनों के बाद, 25 पुरुष किले से चले गए। बचा हुआ भोजन कितने दिनों तक चलेगा?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Correct Answer:
84
Total food = $ 150 \times 85 $= 12750 man-days
Food consumed in 15 days = $ 150 \times 15 = 2250 $ man-days
Remaining food = 12750 - 2250 = 10500 man-days
Remaining men = 150 - 25 = 125
Remaining days = $ \dfrac{10500}{125} = 84 $
Answer = 84
