Three guinea pigs living in the same cage need at least 12 square feet of living space. Is a cage that measures 3 feet by 5 feet big enough for three guinea pigs? Explain.

area of the cage : A = L * W
A = 3 * 5
A = 15 sq ft....so ur cage is 15 square ft...and they need at least 12 sq ft...so yes, it is big enough
