416.67 pounds of food should be given all five lions each day
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, three adult lions together eat 250 pounds of food a day
Thus, 3 adult lions = 250 pounds of food per day
Two more adult lions joined the group and ate food at the same rate as the original three
Now number of adult lions = 3 adult lions + 2 adult lions = 5 adult lions
Let "x" be the food ate by 5 adult lions
Thus we can say,
3 adult lions = 250 pounds of food per day
5 adult lions = "x" pounds of food per day
This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying
Thus 416.67 pounds of food should be given all five lions each day
