Answer:

30 days

Step-by-step explanation:

75-15 = 60

as the number of people decrease the no of days the flour will last will increase therefore it is indirect proportion

x = no of people

y = no of days food will last

x1 = 75

y1 = 24

x2 = 60

y2 = unkown

x1 * y1 = x2 * y2

75 * 24 = 60 * ?

75 * 24/60 = ?

30 = y2

therefore the flour will last for 30 days
