Answer:
number of people =20
number of days =10
new number of people=20 +5=25
new number of days =x
the number of people and the number of days is in indirect proportion.
therefore 20X10=25Xx
=x=20X10/25
=x=4X2/1 (when you do cancellation)
=x=8 days
therefore it takes 8 days for the food to finish
I hope it helps
