Answer:
425
Step-by-step explanation:
Food provision available (in grams)
=Consumption by a person per day × Number of persons × Number of days
=1500 × 20 × 387
= 11610000
Number of people that have to leave the
camp
=Food available ÷ (consumption per day)
=11610000/(24×450)
=11610000/10800
=425 days
