54 athletes can eat for 432/54, or 8 days.

Answer:
8 days
Step-by-step explanation:
sufficient food for 72 athlete to last 6 days
when 18 athletes are absent : 72-18=54
multiply scouts by days , to see how many food is packed :
72*6=432
then divide the amount of food packed by the number of scout attended:
432/54= 8 days
