Answer 1

Answer:

$37\frac{1}{2}$

MEN                           DAYS

100                               30

80                               more days

∴ $\frac{100*30}{80} = 37.5 or 37\frac{1}{2}$

mark as brainliest only if u understand otherwise no need

Answer 2

Given:

Number of days for which food provision lasts for 100 men = 30 days

To find:

If the number of men is reduced to 80,  then the number of days the food could last for is?

Solution:

If food provision for 100 men lasts for 30 days,

Then for 1 man it would last for 30* 100 days = 3000 days

For 80 men it would last for 3000/ 80 days = 37.5 days

Therefore, the food provision for 80 men would last for 37.5 days.
