Answer:
20 Days
Step by step explanation:
Number of students they anticipated: 500
Number of days the food would have lasted:14
Number of students in the hostel: 350
It is inverse variation as number of students decreases the number of days increases.
so therefore:
500 x 14 = 350x
= 7000 = 350x
= 7000/350 = x
x = 20 days
