Answer:

Valerie will need to buy a new bag of dog food after 6 feedings because she would have 0.25 of feedings left.

Explanation:

Total number of ounces of dog food = 75 ounces

Ounces that is fed to the dog is = 12 Ounces in the morning and 12 ounces at night.

Hence:

12 ounces = 1 feeding

75 ounces = x

Cross Multiply

12x = 75

x = 75/12

x = 6.25 feedings

Valerie will need to buy a new bag of dog food after 6 feedings because she would have 0.25 of feedings left.
