Answer:

140 zombies

Explanation:

Since this is a proportions problem and we are given three values and a variable we must solve for which is the number of zombie soldiers she can raise (z) with 10 dark power crystals. Therefore, we can use the rule of three to solve for this, in which we multiply the diagonal values and divide by the last remaining value in order to solve for the variable like so...

1 crystal <===> 14 zombies

10 crystals <===> Z zombies

(10 * 14) / 1 = 140 zombies
