Question

A group of aliens are planning a trip to Earth. For every 5 aliens they need 7 power pouches in order to meet one day's food needs. If there are 40 aliens traveling, how many power pouches will they need for each day of the trip?

Answer 1

$7 \times 40 \div 5 = 56$
and so the aliens will need 56 power pouches for each day of the trip.
