60 boys in a hostel have food for 30 days. How long would the food last for 72 boys. Tell me how to do it with explanation please

The food will last for 25 days with 72 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions can be used to find the number of days the food will last for 72 boys.

60 boys in a hostel have food for 30 days.

Let x be the number of days for which the food will last

The proportion or product of both scenarios has to be same as the number of days and number of boys are proportional

Which means

Hence,

The food will last for 25 days with 72 boys

hello i am doing good for you that it's summer in your country or state ; )

btw in my country we just have sun and rain as (because i live in the caribbean lol)

also, thx a lot for the points : )

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
