Answer:
1/3 of a bag of dog food last will last for [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of dog bag food used per day by Monroe Pet Store to feed the dog= 2
To find:
Number of days 1/3 of a bag of dog food last=?
Solution:
Let the number days for which the [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] of bag of food lasts be x
For one day= 2 bags
for x days = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
By cross multiplication method
[tex]2x=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{\frac{1}{3}}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
