a military camp has a food reserve for 250 personnel for 40 days . if after 15 days 50 more personnel are added to the camp , find the number of days the reserve will last for ?

explanation : speed of the boat downstream = speed of the boat upstream \ small \ therefore the speed of the stream = answer : a
a ) 5 kmph , b ) 6 kmph , c ) 8 kmph , d ) 1 kmph , e ) 2 kmph
a
divide(subtract(divide(60, 3), divide(30, 3)), const_2)
divide(n0,n2)|divide(n1,n2)|subtract(#0,#1)|divide(#2,const_2)

if the operation € is defined for all x and y by the equation x € y = 2 * x * y , then 6 € ( 4 € 5 ) =
working inside out , ( 4 € 5 ) = 2 * 4 * 5 = 40 6 € 40 = 2 * 6 * 40 = 480 hence , answer is a
a ) 480 , b ) 120 , c ) 160 , d ) 240 , e ) 360

multiply(multiply(2, 6), multiply(multiply(2, 4), 5))
multiply(n0,n1)|multiply(n0,n2)|multiply(n3,#1)|multiply(#0,#2)
