Answer:

76.16 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although the consumption remains equivalent each day, the supply each day that is  [tex]\mathbf{\frac{8.33}{7}\;kg }[/tex]

[tex]\bf{So,per\;person\;has\;\mathbf{1.19\;kg/day}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{The\;numbers\;of\;days\;left:(7-5)=2}[/tex]

[tex]\bf{The\;amount\;of\;food\;left\;for\;per\;head: 1.19\;kg/day\times\;2\;days=2.38\;kg}[/tex]

[tex]\bf{\therefore\;\;the\;total\;amount\;of\;food\;by\;each\person:2.38\;kg\times32=76.16\;kg}[/tex]

So, the following answer is correct according to the explanation.
