A certain animal in the zoo has consumed 39 pounds of food in six days. If it continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total consumption be 91 pounds?

14 pounds
because it eats 6.5 pounds a day (39 divided by 6) and you take the 91 pounds and divide it by the amount of food it eats in 1 day to get your total
