Answer:
3 3/4 tins of food
Explanation:
Number of cats = 3
Quantity of food for each cat per day = 1/4 of a tin
Total tins of cat food sue bought = 4 tins
Has Sue bought enough cat food to feed her cats for 5 days?
Quantity of food 3 cats eat per day = Quantity of food for each cat per day × Number of cats
= 1/4 × 3
= 3/4 of a tin
Total Quantity of food 3 cats eat for 5 days = Quantity of food 3 cats eat per day × 5 days
= 3/4 × 5
= (3 * 5) / 4
= 15/4
= 3 3/4 tins of food
Total Quantity of food 3 cats eat for 5 days = 3 3/4 tins of food
Recall,
Total tins of cat food sue bought = 4 tins
Therefore, Sue bought enough cat food to feed her cats for 5 days
