If four men need $24.00 worth of food for a three-day camping trip, how much will two men need for a two-week trip?

Asked by Berent

Answer (3)

$56
$24 / 4 = 6. 6 / 3 = 2. 2 x 14 = 28 x 2 = 56

$56 because 24 divided by 4 men divided by 3 days=2 times 14 days times 2 men=56

To support two men for a two-week camping trip, the food cost will amount to $56.00. This is calculated based on a daily food cost of $2.00 per man, established from the initial $24.00 needed for four men over three days. Overall, the calculations show the proportional increase in food costs based on the number of men and the length of the trip.
