An army base had provisions for 300 soldiers for
90 days. After 20 days, 50 soldiers left the army base.
How much longer after this will the food last if the
remaining soldiers consume food at the same rate?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An army base had provisions for 300 soldiers for  90 days. After 20 days, there should be provisions enough for 300 soldiers for another 70 days

= 21000 soldier-day

50 soldiers left so there are 300-50 = 250 soldiers left

if they consume food at the same rate, the remaining provisions will last

= 21000/250

= 84 days
