with modifier

Hi instructors,

when the context of the sentence allow "with" to modify both the subject and the object in a sentence, which noun does it belong to?

I (with extensive teaching skills)
I joined Manhattan faculties with extensive teaching skills.

Manhattan faculties (with extensive teaching skills)
I joined Manhattan faculties with extensive teaching skills.

Can you help me what identify does "with fewer restrictions on food supplies" modify New Yorker or Bostonian?

As food supplies began to decrease, most of New Yorkers abandoned their home to join Bostonians with with fewer restrictions on food supplies.
this is a similar sentence to "Monument Valley Anasazi" OG #102 : )

Thanks!!!

none of your examples work. the analogy you drew was to an INCORRECT answer choice in #102. since your question assumes that your examples are valid, i'm afraid we can't help with this one..
