Question

Help me help me this is due tomorrow I’m scared!!!

Answer 1

These questions are all of the same type: division. They ask to find how many of a number can fit in another number.

As for question 5, there are 42 pounds of dog food, and $\frac{7}{8}$ pound of dog food is used for each feeding. To find the number of times Mr. Lash can feed his animals, divide 42 by $\frac{7}{8}$. The answer is 48.

Solving the rest of the questions by this method, here are the answers. If you wish you can do them yourself to verify your understanding.

6) 12

7) 4

8) 8

9) 2

Note: in question 9, the question is in reverse order compared to the other questions.
