Correct option is (A) 50
Food stock = 500 \(\times\) 70 = 35000
Let after 200 more joined the camp the food stock is sufficient for x many days.
\(\therefore\) x (500+200) = 500 \(\times\) 70
\(\Rightarrow\) \(x=\frac{500\times70}{700}=50\)
\(\therefore\) Food is sufficient for 50 days after 200 more joined in the camp.
