Abby feeds her dog 1 1/2 cups of food each day, and Braxton feeds his dog 4 1/2 cups of food each day. In one week, how many tim

ddd [48]

Solution:

Note that:

Abby's dog: 1.5 cups of food
Braxton's dog: 4.5 cups of food

Looking at the information we got, we can say that Braxton's dog eats more. Let's put them into ratio form (Braxton's dog:Abby's dog)

=> (Braxton's dog:Abby's dog) = 4.5:1.5

Now, put them into fractions.

=> 4.5:1.5 = 4.5/1.5 = 3

We can conclude that Braxton's dog eats 3 times more food.

Johanna can jog 3,000 feet in 5 minutes. If she jogs at the same rate, how many feet can she jog in 8 minutes? *

The answer is B (4,800)

Why?

Because we divide 3,500 feet by 5 and that will give us 600. Why we had to divide is because we need to find how many feet in minutes. So we do 600 times 8 and that gives us 4,800. Please mark me as branlist! Hope this helped! :)
