Question

what is the answer to this question. please respond. I need the answer very quick.my teacher is going to get mad at me

Answer 1

It is a ratio problem...

2 dogs need 144 feet = 2 : 144

Simplify the ratio = 1 : 72

Multiply both sides by 8 (8 dogs) = 1*8 :144*8

Simplify the ratio = 8 : 1152

8 dogs need 1152 feet of fencing

Hope this helps!
