A military camp has enough food to feed 1000 soldiers for 36 days. If 500 additional soldiers join the camp, how long will the food last?

Answer 1

1 000 soldiers + 500 soldiers = 1 500 soldiers

1 000 / 1 500 = 500 * 2 / ( 500 * 3 ) = 2 / 3

( 2 / 3 ) * 36 = 72 / 3 = 24 days

OR

Camp has enough food to feed 36 000 soldiers for 1 day.

36 000 / 1 500 = 24 days
