Question

A pet store sells dog biscuits and cat treats. The store has 27 boxes of dog biscuits and 21 pouches of cat treats. Each box holds 18 dog biscuits. Each pouch holds 24 cat treats. How many cat treats and dog biscuits are there

Answer 1

There are 504 cat treats and 486 dog biscuits.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of pouches of cat treats
`=21`

Number of cat treats in each pouch
`=24`

Number of boxes of dog biscuits
`=27`

Number of dog biscuits in each box
`=18`

Since, number of cat treats in 1 pouch = 24

Therefore, number of cat treats in 21 pouches =
`21* 24=504`

Since, number of dog biscuits in 1 box = 18

Therefore, umber of dog biscuits in 27 boxes =
`27* 18=486`

Hence, there are 504 cat treats and 486 dog biscuits.
