Answer:

24.30 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one person consume x kgs in a day

No. of Men = 1500

Total available provision for 48 days = 48 x 1500x

Thus the provision consumed in 13 days = 13 x 1500x

Remaining Provision = Total Provision – consumed provision

= 72000x – 19500x

=52500x

Now 660 men were added , Hence total strength will be 1500+660 = 2160

Provision consumed in one day = 2160x

Provision left = 52500x

Hence number of days for which provision can run

= \frac{52500x}{2160x}

=24.30 days

Hence the provison will end for 24.30 more days

A blueprint uses a scale factor of 3 inches = 2 feet. What is the area on the blueprint of a 3,500 square foot house in inches?
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

7875 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

4ft^2 = 2ft * 2ft

4ft^2 = 3in * 3in

4ft^2 = 9in^2

For 3,500 square foot

3,500 square foot  = x

Divide bith expressions

4/3500 = 9/x

4x = 9 * 3500

4x = 31500

x = 31500/4

x = 7875 square inches

Hence the area of the house in inches is 7875 square inches
