Answer: 72 days

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP ONE: Find the total amount of food

Total days = 18 days

Total people = 8 people

Total food = days × people

Total food = 18 × 8

Total food = 144

STEP TWO: Find the days that would last for 2 people

Total people = 2 people

Total food = 144 units

Total days = food ÷ people

Total days = 144 ÷ 2

Total days = [tex]\boxed{72days}[/tex]

Hope this helps!! :)
