Ancient people had a history of fasting, it was part of their weekly sometimes daily activities. They could fast for long periods of time. A human can go one to two months without food.

One person said to be recorded to go over 300 days without food, may have been a very large person.

It also depends on the type of fasting, like Daniel, it is said he fasted by retaining from sweets. John the Baptist fasted every day, his diet consisted of honey and locust. Reframing from eating meat and bread or animal products but could probably eat a small quantity fruit and nuts daily.

Man only assumes the type of fasting Jesus did, as an absolute we don't know.
