Question

Mr. Simpson feeds his dog a 1/2 cup of dog food each day. How long will a 26 cups of dog food last?

Answer 1

The cup of food required for a day, N=1/2 cup.

Total number of cups, T=26.

The number days 26 cups of food will last is,

`\begin{gathered} n=(T)/(N) \\ n=(26)/((1)/(2)) \\ n=26*2=52 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, 26 cups of food will last for 52 days.
