Complete question :

A dog needs 4/3 liters of water for 2/5 of a day. How many liters of water does the dog need for an entire day?

Answer:

10/3 litres

Explanation:

Given that:

Amount of water needed for 2/5 of a day = 4/3 litres ;

An entire day = 1/ 1 of a day

Hence, If;

2/5 = 4/3 litres of water

1/1 = x

Cross multiply ;

(2/5)x = 4/3

2x /5 = 4/ 3

2x * 3 = 5 * 4

6x = 20

x = 20 /6

x = 10 /3 litres
