Question

Andy’s dog weighs 27 pounds, which is 3/4 the weight of Seher’s dog. How many pounds does Seher’s dog weigh?

Answer 1

Answer:

20.25 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 27 by 3/4 or .75 to equal 20.25.

Answer 2

Answer:

36 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Seher's dog weigh x pounds, here is an equation:

27=$\frac{3}{4}$x

multiply 4 on both sides and dividing 3 on both sides, we get:

36=x

we flip this around:

x=36

So, Seher's dog weighs 36 pounds.
