Answer / vikram sethi

here in this problem we can make groups as follows

15 soldiers >>>>> 1 captain ----group-1
next 15 soldiers >>>>> 1 captain--group 2
''''''''''''''''''''''''''
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' (here each group contains 16
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' members i.e 1 captain & other is
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' 15 soldiers)
let these be repeated as (x)times since total members=1200
therefore 1200/x=16 where x can be calculated as 1200/16=75
