Roughly how many were in Shagrat and Gorbag's companies, respectively?

Sorry for asking such a stagnating question guys. The answer is found in "The Tower of Cirith Ungol".
Also, the answer is from Sam's estimation. No one is correct so far, but Radagast the Brown was closest. (He said Gorbag 80, Shagrat 70.) Radagast is correct about Gorbag. If you guys want to give up, Radagast can ask a question.

I checked the book.
 Shagrat's company was about forty, while Gorbag's was more than twice as large -- more than eighty.

I asked a mean question now that I think about it. I was just re-reading that part, and I thought it was a cool peice of trivia.
It's in the chapter The Last Debate, and the distance is measured in leagues.

Is it thirty leagues?

1 league = 5.55600 kilometers
One kilometer is equivalent to 1,000 meters or 0.62 miles
