In a school sports camp, food is arranged for 200 students for 30 days. If 50 more people join the sports camp on the first day, then for how many days will the food last?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 24.
Food for 200 students lasts 30 days
Total food = 200 × 30 = 6000 student-days
New number of students = 200 + 50 = 250
Now, divide total food by new number of students:
6000 ÷ 250 = 24 days
