Answer:


\huge\boxed{\bf\:\boxed{\mathfrak{2}}\:cans\:each}

Explanation:

We need to find the number of cans of food each cat in the animal shelter gets per day.

Given,

  • Total number of cats in the animal shelter = 10
  • Total number of cans used = 20

So,

Number of cans for each cat:

= Total number of cans / Total number of cats

= 20/10

= 2 cans each


\rule{150}{2}
