Question

Marie walks her neighbors dogs for an hour and 40 minutes each day after school. If it takes Marie 17 minutes to walk and dog around her neighborhood about how many dogs does she walk each day

Answer 1

Answer:she walks about 6 dogs each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marie walks her neighbors dogs for an hour and 40 minutes each day after school. Converting an hour and 40 minutes to minutes, it becomes

1 × 60 + 40 = 60 + 40 = 100 minutes.

If it takes Marie 17 minutes to walk a dog around her neighborhood, then the number of dogs that she walks each day would be

100/17 = 5.88 dogs

Since the number of dogs must be whole number, then the number of dogs is 6
