Answer:

15 days

Explanation:

8 days equals 48 pounds of foods. 48 times 2 will be 96 and that equals 16 days. Subtract 6 from 96 and you get 90 but you have to subtract a day as well.

Answer:

120 days

Explanation:

6/8 = 0.75 meaning the eagle eats 0.75 pounds of food every day.

90/0.75=120 days
