Mr. Lash has 42 pounds of dog food to divide among his dogs. If each dog receives 7/8 pounds of food for each feeding, how many times can Mr. Lash feed his animals?

It doesn't as at how many dogs he has but


42➗7/8= 48

48 feedings for one dog

48/2= 24 feedings each dog

48/ # of dogs = how many feedings per dog
