Amount of wheat consumed per person per day = 54000/(3*30)
= 600 g
For 18 days, 600 * x= 54000. ( x is the total no. Of people)
x= 54000/600
x= 90 people.
But there were 3 people in the beginning
Therefore, new members= 90-3
=87
please marh brainliest plz plz plz

No. of friends=3     ,     x
no. of days=   30   ,     18             inverse
x=3*30/18
x=90/18
x=5
