<em>IMPORTANT THIGNS TO REMEMBER:</em>
- Has 20 lb. dog food!
- Gives dog 1 3/5 everyday!
- Find how much eaten after 2 days!
- Find how much is left!
<em>ANSWER:</em>
Dog has eaten 3 1/5 after 2 days!
There is 16 4/5 left in bag!
<em>EXPLANATION:</em>
Since she gives 1 3/5 to her dog everyday and their asking for 2 days you would multiply 1 3/5 × 2 OR add 1 3/5 + 1 3/5
Which would give you 3 1/5
So, the dog has eaten 3 1/5 lb. of dog food in 2 days.
However then, you would subtract 20 lb. - 3 1/5 lb. because there is 20 lb. dog food in all and the dog has eaten 3 1/5 of it. This would give you 16 4/5 lb.
Meaning there is 16 4/5 lb. left in the bag of dog food!
I would answer but I’m in 6th grade and I don’t know how to
7(3a + 12) = 168 ← ( divide both sides by 7 )
3a + 12 = 24 ← ( subtract 12 from both sides )
3a = 12 ← ( divide both sides by 3 )
a = 4
OR
distribute the parenthesis by 7
21a + 84 = 168 ← ( subtract 84 from both sides )
21a = 84 ← ( divide both sides by 21 )
a = 4
Are you rounding to the nearest 100’s place?
