This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Genghis Khan organized his men into groups of 10 soldiers undera“leader of 10.” Ten “leaders of 10”were undera“leader of 100.” Ten “leaders of 100”were undera“leader of 1,000.”
(a) If Khan had an army of 10,000 soldiers at the lowest level, how many men in total were under him in his organization?
(b) If Khan had an army of 5,763 soldiers at the lowest level, how many men in total were under him in his organization?
Assume that the groups of 10 should contain 10 if possible, but that one group at each level may need to contain fewer
Answer:
a) = 11110 soldiers
b = 6404 soldiers
Explanation:
Given that Khan arranged his men in to groups of 10 soldiers under a "leader of 10" Ten" leaders of 10 were under a "leader of 100." Ten" leaders of 100" were under a "leader of 1000"
so
a) If Khan had an army of 10,000 soldiers at the lowest level, how many men in total were under him in his organization?
NOW
Number of soldier = 10,000
Lower Rank (soldier) = 10000
third highest (leader of 10) = 10000/10 = 1000
second highest ( leader of 100) = 1000/10 = 100
Highest ranked ( Leader of 1000) = 100/10 = 10
so the Total = 10000 + 1000 + 100 + 10 = 11110 soldiers
b) If Khan had an army of 5,763 soldiers at the lowest level, how many men in total were under him in his organization? Assume that the groups of 10 should contain 10 if possible, but that one group at each level may need to contain fewer
NOW
Number of soldiers = 5,763
Lowest Rank (soldier) = 5763
third highest (leader of 10) = 5763/10 = 576.3 = 577 (whole number required for human)
second highest ( leader of 100) = 577/10 = 57.7 = 58
Highest ranked ( Leader of 1000) = 58/10 = 5.8 = 6
so the Total = 5763 + 577 + 58 + 6 = 6404 soldiers
