Question

Harold stores 10,656 pounds of grain for his 24 cattle. Each cow eats about 12 pound of grain each day. How many days would the food supply last

Answer 1

Find out how many pounds the cattle eat per day (collectively):
24 cattle x 12 lb = 288  lb

Divide how much Harold has by how much the cattle eat per day:
10,656 lbs /288 lbs per day= 37 days
