Can you use these interchangeably? And are they correct?
Do we have food for how many days?
How many days will our food last?
How many days will we have enough food?

#1 is wrong but you can say it like this:
"We have food for how many days?"
Simply putting the question mark at the end turns it into a question. When you speak it, you need to add rising interrogative inflection at the end of the sentence.

#2 is fine, as Dan said. To make it sound even more natural, I would suggest:
How long will our food last?

#2 is correct and is good, natural English.
#3 can be made correct by adding the word "for:" "For how many days will we have enough food?" (You can also say "How many days will we have enough food for?" This is correct and natural, but it poses a strange problem: there is a grammar myth that says it is "bad English" to end a sentence with a preposition.)
#1 is not correct and cannot easily be corrected. You can ask "Do we have enough food for five days?" but you can't substitute "how many" for "five."

I think that yes. But I am not a teacher.
