Answer:

The number of soldiers that call out a number 3 is 666 soldiers

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

Number of soldiers = 2000

Soldiers calling from the left = 1, 2, 3,.....

Soldiers calling from the right = 1, 2, 3,.....

Therefore, since the number soldiers calling out the number 3 are 1 in 3 from the left and 1 in 3 from the right, we split the soldiers into 2 groups of 1000, with one group calling from left and the other group calling from the right;

The number of 3s in called out in the first group from the left is therefore;

1000/3 = 333.33 which is 333 soldiers  or from the 3rd soldier to the 999th soldier

Similarly the number of 3s called out from the second group = 333

Hence the total number of soldiers that call out a number 3 = 333 + 333 = 666 soldiers.
