Answer:
62.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
let sufficient food for all sailors for 1 day = x
total food = food for sailors for 80 days = 80 x
After 30 days , food consumed = 30 × food for all sailors for 1 day = 30x
Remaining food = total food - food consumed = 80x - 30x = 50x
Food % still remaining = (Remaining food × 100)/ total food
= (50x × 100) /80x = 62.5%
Hence 62.5% food should still remain.

Answer:
Total days the food remains=80
The percentage of food still remains after 30 days=30/80 ×100
=300/8
=37.5 food finished
Total % of food- food finished
= 100%-37.5%
=62.5% food remains (ANS)
