After an explosion of an oxygen tank, three astronauts were forced to move into the lunar lander that was attached to their spacecraft. If the lunar lander had enough oxygen to last 2 people for 6 days, is there enough oxygen for 3 astronauts if their journey back to earth will take 4 days?

2 people * 6 days = 12 days of oxygen for 1 person.

12 days of oxygen per person / 3 astronauts = 4 days of oxygen

The answer is yes, there IS ENOUGH oxygen
