If 18 dogs are housed in 4 kennels comfortably, how many dogs can be housed in 10 kennels?

45 dogs, because 8 kennels = 36 dogs, and 2 kennels = 9 dogs, so 36 + 9, which equals 45
Hope this helps!!

Set up an equality so that the proportions are equal...

d/10=18/4 multiply both sides by 10

d=180/4

d=45

So 45 dogs can be housed in 10 kennels.
