Question

there are 5 cups of oat meal in a container. stella eats 1/3 cup of the oat meal every day for breakfast. in how many days will stella finish all the oat meal in the container

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Stella takes 1/3 cup each day, then a cup will be taken in 3 days.

And since there are five cups, then:

5cups * 3days = 15days.

It will take Stella 15days to finish the 5cups at that rate.

Answer 2

Answer:

15 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, since there are 5 cups of oatmeal, and she eats 1/3 a day, then the equation is: 5 divided by 1/3 then change 1/3 to its reciprocal which is 3. 5 times three is 15 so therefore Stella will finish it in 15 days.

Your welcome.
