Question

A dog uses 30 lbs of dog food per day. How many pounds are used in a year?

Answer 1

To solve this we would do 30×365

We would do this because each day the dog 30lbs

So we have the equation y=30x
Where y= total amount of dog food
And x= number of days

In a year there are 365 days typically, so we do 30×365

30×365=10,950

In one year 10,950 lbs of dog food are used
