Question

A duck was given $9, a spider was given $36, a bee was given $27. Based off of this information, how much money would be given to a cat? How did arrive to that answer*

Answer 1

Answer:

28 should be the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

9 + 36 + 27 = 71

100 - 71 = 28

I am guessing the number was 100 as you did not give the correct data

Answer 2

Answer:

$18.

Formula : (No. of legs *5) - (no.of legs)/2

A duck has 2 feet. It gets 2*5 - (2/2) = 10 - 1 = $9

A spider has 8. It gets 8*5 - (8/2) = 40 -4 = $36

A bee has 6 feet. It gets 6*5 -(6/2) = 30 -3 = $27.

Thus, a cat with 4 legs would get 4*5 - (4/2) = 20 -2 =$18
