CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. After 5 days the food left would feed 120 students for 20 days = 120×20=2,400120 \times 20 = 2{,}400 student-days.

  2. Now there are 160 students, so it lasts 2,400÷160=152{,}400 \div 160 = 15 more days.

Worth noting

18.75 forgets the 5 days already used (120×25÷160)(120 \times 25 \div 160).
