Solution

The correct option is B 6 days
There was sufficient food for 200 student for 31 days. After 27 days 120 days student left
So remaining students =200120=80
Remaining days =3127=4 days
Now there is sufficient food for 200 students for days.
1 student can take the food =200×4 days
80 student can take the food =200×480=10 days
Extra days =104=6 days
