Question

At the dairy farm, two cows produce enough milk to fill 7 equal sized buckets. Each cow produces the same amount of milk. What is the rate per bucket per cow?

Answer 1

3.5 buckets per cow

Explanation:

Given

`Buckets = 7\ equal\ sized`

Required

Determine the rate per bucket per each cow

From the question, we understand that both cows produced same quantity of milk;

And since, they're are two cows

Milk produced by each cow is calculated by dividing number of buckets by 2; as follows;

`Each\ cow = (7)/(2)\ buckets`

`Each\ cow = 3.5\ buckets`

Hence, the rate is 3.5 buckets per cow
