Answer 1

This depends on a variety of factors including the type of food, your level of activity and what else you intake over the period of digestion.

Food can stay in the stomach anywhere from a few minutes to several hours.

Small amounts of easy to digest material will pass through the stomach in just a few minutes

The more food added and the thickness and density of the food, the longer it will take.

Also, including fluids such as water will cause digestion to take even longer as you will be watering down the stomach acids.

Large amounts of hard to digest food which have been consumed along with liquids may stay in the stomach for 6 to 8 hours.

The average is 2 to 4 hours for a small meal with moderate fluid intake.
