if a humming bird were to get all of its food from a feeder then a 16 oz nectar feeder could feed about 80 humming birds a day how many humming birds would you expect to be able to feed with a 12 oz feeder?

60 is the answer because 16 goes into 80 5 times, so 5 hummingbirds can drink 1 oz so if you have a 12 oz feeder then you can feed 60 birds or 5x12.
