Answer 2

HELLO DEAR FRIEND

YOUR ANSWER

$\huge \bf \boxed{10 \: days}$

$\large \it \bf \underline \purple{STEP \: \: \: BY \: \: \: STEP }$ $\large \it \bf \underline \purple{ EXPLANATION }$

Given amount of food = 280

Number of men = 100

number of days = 7

let the per person consumption of food be x

ATQ,

100 × 7 × x = 280

700x = 280

$\large{ x = \frac{ \large{280}}{ \large{700}} }$

$= \large{0.4 \: }kg$

now,

number of men = 70

per person consumption = 0.4kg

amount of food = 280 kg

let the days will the food last be y

ATQ,

70 × y × 0.4 = 280

28y = 280

$\large{ y= \frac{ \large{280}}{ \large{28}} }$

$= \large{10 \: }$

so, number of days the food will last =

$\huge \bf \boxed{10 \: days}$
