Answer:
7 cases will be needed by kennel to feed all of the dogs for 7 days.
Explanation:
Amount of dog food required by a dog = 10 ounces
Number of dogs in kennel = 24
Number of days dog housed in kennel = 7
Total amount of dog food = T
[tex]T=10\times 24\times 7 ounces=1,680 ounces[/tex]
Number of cans in single case = 30
Amount of dog food in a can = 8 ounces
Total amount of dog food in a case = 30 × 8 ounces = 240 ounces
Let the X cases of dog are needed for 7 days:
[tex]X\times 240 ounces=1,680 ounces[/tex]
[tex]X=\frac{1,680 ounces}{240 ounces}=7[/tex]
7 cases will be needed by kennel to feed all of the dogs for 7 days.
