Given,

100 students in a hostel

Food provision for them is for 20 days

To find,

Provisions last if 25 more students join the group

Solution,

Let the consumption of 1 students in a day be  1 unit

consumption of 100 students in a day= (100 x 1)

                                                                = 100 units

Total amount of food in 20 days = (100 x 20)

                                                         = 2000 units

Now, number of students increase= 100 + 25

                                                           = 125 students

Therefore, number of days food will last = 2000/ 125

                                                         = 16 days

Hence, these provisions last if 25 more students join the group in 16 days.
