Question

Mias dog weighs 32.6 pounds. Letties dog weighs 3.8 times as much as Mias you. What does Letties dog weigh in pounds?

Answer 1

Hello!

We are given the weight of Mia's dog and told to find the weight of Lettie's dog based on the known relationship. Using these given values, we can create the following equation (let "w" represent the total weight of Lettie's dog):

w = 32.6(3.8)

Simplify the right side of the equation:

w = 123.88

We have now proven that Lettie's dog weighs 123.88 lbs.

I hope this helps!
