the vet put 2 litters of kittens in a cage with 5 other kittens she also put 3 litters of puppies in the cage next door with one other puppy if all the litters have the same number of animals and the cages now contain the same number of animals how many animals are in each litter

Answer 1

Each litter contains 4 animals.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of animals in each litter, we need to use the given information. We know that the vet put 2 litters of kittens in a cage with 5 other kittens, so there are a total of 7 kittens in the first cage. In the second cage, there are 3 litters of puppies with 1 other puppy, so there are 4 puppies in the second cage. Since the cages now contain the same number of animals, we can set up an equation: 2 litters of kittens + 5 other kittens = 3 litters of puppies + 1 other puppy. Substituting the given numbers, we have 2x + 5 = 3x + 1, where x represents the number of animals in each litter. Solving this equation, we find that x = 4. Therefore, each litter contains 4 animals.
