The dog ate $10\frac{2}{3}$ pounds of food

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Quantity of food = q = 16 pounds

Portion eaten by dog = p = 2/3

So,

The total pounds of food eaten by dog are:

$Pounds\ eaten\ by\ dog = p*q\\= \frac{2}{3} * 16\\= \frac{32}{3}\\= 10\frac{2}{3}$

Hence,

The dog ate $10\frac{2}{3}$ pounds of food

$\huge\mathcal\pink{ANSWER}$

$\mathsf \purple{ v = \frac{1}{2} (a + b) \times h \times l}$

$\mathsf \pink{v = \frac{1}{2} (5 + 12) \times 6.1 \times 16}$

$\mathsf \purple{v = \frac{1}{2} (17) \times 6.1 \times 16}$

$\mathsf \pink{v = 8 \frac{1}{2} \times 6.1 \times 16}$

$\mathsf \purple{v = 829.6 {mi}^{3} }$
