Question

a) 14 oz
b) 18 oz
c) 20 oz
d) 24 oz

Answer 1

To find the total number of ounces sold, add the ounces for kittens and puppies: 18 oz for each kitten and 16 oz for each puppy. Therefore, the correct answer is 34 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total number of ounces sold, we need to add the number of ounces each kitten and puppy gets. Each kitten gets 8 oz + 10 oz = 18 oz in total. Each puppy gets 6 oz + 10 oz = 16 oz in total.

To find the total number of ounces, we add the ounces for kittens and puppies: 18 oz + 16 oz = 34 oz.

Therefore, the correct answer is d) 34 oz.
