MCQ

उत्तर

90

Explanation:

Let the total amount of meal is P.

Amount of meal required by each student

`="P"/450`

Amount of meal required by each cop

`="P"/450`

A meal took by 300 students

`=300/450 "P"=2/3 "P"`

Remaining meal `="P"-2/3"P"="P"/3`

Number of cops can be taken a meal in `"P"/3`

`=("P"/3)/("P"/270)=270/3=90`
