4x + 3y = 54 (1)
3x + 9y = 108 (2)
Multiply (1) by (-3)
-12x - 9y = -162
3x + 9y = 108
---------------------add
-9x = -54
x = 6
plug x = 6 into (1) to find y
4(6) + 3y = 54
24 + 3y = 54
3y = 30
y = 10

The number of people increased by 2.
This means as a ratio it is now 6/4 as many as originally planned.
6/4 can be reduced to 3/2.
The time and the number of people are inversely proportional, so the food would last 2/3 ( inverse is flipping the original ratio over) the original length of time.
This means the length of time the food lasts is reduced by 1/3, which is 33.3%
