A) 44
B) 42
C) 40
D) 38
E) 36
Explanation:   Given that fort had provision of food for 150 men for 45 days   Hence, after 10 days, the remaining food is sufficient for 150 men for 35 days   Remaining men after 10 days = 150 - 25= 
<gadget id="calculator">150 - 25</gadget>
<output>125</output>
125   Assume that after 10 days, the remaining food is sufficient for 125 men for x days   More men, Less days (Indirect Proportion)   (men) 150 : 125 :: x : 35   ⇒150×35=125x   ⇒6×35=5x   ⇒x=6×7=42   i.e., the remaining food is sufficient for 125 men for 42 days   Answer: Option 42
<result>B</result>
