Question

Jill bought a 9 pound bag of cat food for her cats. She had used 4/5 of the bag. How many pounds has she used?

A. 9 4/5

B. 8 4/5

C. 8 3/5

D. 7 1/5

Answer 1

4/5 of 9= 7.2 lbs.....

Answer 2

D. 7 1/5

Explanation:

We would calculate the amount of pounds she used by multiplying the total amount of cat food = 9 to the amount she has used = 4/5

=
`9 * (4)/(5)`

=
`(36)/(5)`

=
`7 (1)/(5)`
