Answer:

2 gallons of milk per week

0.35 weeks(3.5 days) to consume 1 gallon

Explanation:

Jaidyn's family drinks 10 gallons of milk every 5 weeks, which is a ratio of

10:5

To find how many gallons of milk they drink per week, you'd have to divide 10/5

10 ÷ 5 = 2

Considering that 1 week is 7 days, it would take them 0.35 weeks to consume 1 gallon of milk, which is the same as 3 and a half days.
