Rodney bought a 10-pound bag of dog food. His dog ate 2 2/5 pounds of the food in the
first month and 2 4/5 pounds of the food in the second month. How much dog food, in
pounds, was remaining in the bag at the end of the two months? Show your work.

Answer 1

There would be 4 4/5 pounds of food remaining.

Explanation:

2 2/5 + 2 4/5 = 4 6/5

6/5 = 1 1/5

4 + 1 1/5 = 5 1/5

10 - 5 1/5 = 4 4/5

Therefore, there would be 4 4/5 pounds of food remaining.
