A garrison of 400men had food for 40days.After 10 days,200 more men joined them .How long will the food last now?(Assume that th

mestny [16]

Let $x$ be the amount of food needed for one man for one day. At the beginning, we have enough food for 400 men for 40 days, i.e.

$400\cdot 40\cdot x = 16000x$

After 10 days, the 400 men will have consumed

$400\cdot 10\cdot x = 4000x$

food, impliying that the food remaining is

$16000x-4000x=12000x$

If 200 more men join the garrison, there are now 600 men. Each of them requires $x$ food each day, and there are $12000x$ units of food remaining. They will last

$\dfrac{12000x}{600}=20$ days.
