Answer:
10 days :
Cameron can feed his cat for 10 days from a 5 pound bag of Dry Cat food
Explanation:
Since Cameron feed his cat twice 4 ounce of Dry cat food a day, then,
In a day the cat will feed on dry cat food at the rate of 4 once x 2 times = 8 ounce per day.
Also note that, 16 ounce makes a pound.
And since Cameron's cat eats 8 ounce per day, that he eats 16 ounce in two days
16 ounce ÷ 8ounce per day = 2 days
Therefore in a 5 pound bag of Dry cat food,
Cameron can feed his cat for 10 days at the rate of 4 ounce twice ration per day.
4 ounce x 2 = 8 ounce per day
8 ounce x 2 = 16 ounce per 2 days = 1 pound per 2 days
Therefore:
5 pound ÷ 8 ounce = 10 days.
Answer:
N = 10 days
5 pound bag of dry food can feed the cat for 10 days
Explanation:
Total amount of dry cat food Cameron's cat eats per day A = 2 × 4 ounces
A = 8 ounces
Given that;
1 pound = 16 ounces
5 pounds = 5 × 16 ounces = 80 ounces
The number of days he can feed his cat from a 5 pounds bag can be given as N;
N = 5 pounds ÷ 8 ounces/day
N = 80 ounces ÷ 8 ounces/day
N = 10 days.
