    A garrison of 'n' men had enough food to last for 30 days. After 10 days, 50 more men joined them. If the food now lasted for 16 days, what is the value of n?

    A) 200                  

    B) 240

    C) 280                              

    D) 320

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    By given condition, \[n\times 30=n\times 10+(n+50)\times 16\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[20n=16n+800\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[n=\frac{800}{4}=200\]
