    10 hams

    Explanation:

    It is given that 10 people can produce 1 ham in a month. It is assumed that whatever is produced is consumed. So, 100 people will produce 10 hams that is 100 : 10 = 10 in a month. So, 100 people can consume 10 hams, that are produced in a month.

    So, residents can consume maximum 10 hams (same amount as produced) in a month.
