Question

A farmer has a budget of 5000 to feed a cow for 300 days. She buys the cow for 1400 . So how much does it cost to feed the cow per day?

Answer 1

Given that,

A farmer has a budget of 5000 to feed a cow for 300 days.

She buys the cow for 1400

To find the cost to feed the cow per day

we have that,

Total budget=5000

number of days=300

Cost of cow=1400

Total cost to feed the cow for 300 days is,

`=5000-1400`
`=3600`

Total cost to feed the cow for 300 days is 3600

Cost to feed the cow per day is,

`=(3600)/(300)`
`=12`

Answer is: Cost to feed the cow per day is 12.
