The answer is 4 days. There are a couple of different ways to go about it, here's one:
From the first set of given info, you know that 500 lb. mush is good for 20 pigs for a week, so lb. mush per pig per DAY is 500/(20*7) = 3.57 lb. mush/(pig*day)
From the second set of given info, you can set up this equation:
(14 pigs)*(x days) = 200 lb. mush/3.57 lb. mush/(pig*day) --> (Double check by making sure that the units on both sides are consistent).
Simplifying, you get 14x = 56 --> x = 4 days.
