Solution

The correct option is B 40 miles
Total distance to be covered by priates = 2000 miles.
Number of days remaining = 50.

The pirates are travelling same distance everyday.

∴ Distance travelled equally will be = 2000÷50 miles.

Now, look at the box diagram for this division:

Final quotient as 40.

So, the pirates will travel 40 miles everyday to cover the entire distance in the given time.
