Answer:
3⅘ lb
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) <em>Amount eaten</em>
Eaten = 10⅖ + 10⅘
Think of pounds as pies. Each pie has 5 slices.
10⅖ pies = 10 pies + 2 slices = 50 slices + 2 slices = 52 slices
10⅘ pies = 10 pies + 2 slices = 50 slices + 4 slices = 54 slices
Eaten = 52 slices + 54 slices = 106 slices
(b) <em>Amount remaining</em>
Remaining = Original – Eaten
Original = 25 pies = 125 slices
Eaten = 106 slices
Remaining = 125 slices -106 slices
Remaining = 19 slices Convert slices to pies
Remaining = 15 slices + 4 slices
Remaining = 3 pies + 4 slices Convert to mixed fraction
Remaining = 3⅘ pies Convert pies to pounds
Remaining dog food = 3⅘ lb
