This is a two-part question in which we must identify the value of one part to determine the other part’s value. Since we already know each dog gets 24 treats if shared equally by 5 dogs, we can set up an equation:
5 • 24 = 120
If 5 dogs equally share the bag of dog treats, there is a total of 120 treats. We now can apply this to the scenario of 8 dogs distributing:
120 / 8 = 15
If 8 dogs share equally the bag of treats, each dog will receive 15 treats.
