Answer:
The mom ate 49 fish.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved by a rule of three.
a mother otter is fed 7 fish for every 2 fish for its cub
if a cub has eaten 14 fish , how many fish did the mother eat ?
For each 2 fish cub eats, the mon eats 7. How much has the mom eaten if the cub has eaten 14?
So
2 - 7
14 - x
2x = 14*7
Simplifying by 2
x = 7*7
x = 49
The mom ate 49 fish.
