Answer 1

Question 1 Answer: The adult weight will be 45 pounds.

Question 2 Answer: The puppy is ⅕ of its adult weight.

Explanation:

Q1- Why is the answer: because there are 5 9's and 5 ⋅ 9 = 45.

Q2-why is the answer : because the whole is divided into 5 pieces of equal length.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Explanation:

a). Since, 20% of the total diagram is represented by one fifth part of the total length.

Therefore, by adding all parts we will get 100% weight of the adult puppy.

20% of the part = 9 pounds

So the total weight of the adult puppy = 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9

= 45 pounds

b). Weight of the puppy = 9 pounds

Weight of a adult = 45 pounds

Therefore, fraction that represents the weight of the puppy as compared to the weight of an adult =
`(9)/(45)`

=
`(1)/(5)`
