Question

Stefan has 4 1/2

cups of oats. He uses 3 1/4

cups to make granola bars for a camping trip. He saves the rest of the oats to feed to his parrot, Coco. If Coco needs 1/4
of a cup of oats each day, how many days can Stefan feed Coco with the oats he has left?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Stefan has 4½ cups of oat

He uses 3¼ to make granola

What he has left 4½-3¼ = 1¼

If he feeds ¼of a cup to parrots a day, then he has 5 days feed from 1¼

Calculation 1¼ ÷ ¼

Change to improper fraction

5/4 ÷ 1/4 = 5/4 x 4/1

Ans 20/4 = 5days

Answer 2

5 days .......
