20.8333%

Step-by-step explanation:

It means There was shortage of food, so it ended up with 19 people.

Original Value = 24 people New Value = 19 people

There is a Percentage decrease

%decrease = Original Value - New Value / Original Value × 100%

%decrease = 5/24 × 100%

%decrease = 20.8333 %

So, more 20.8333% would be needed so that 24 people can get the food  .
