Question

Doris bought a 100 pound bag of dog food. She gave her dogs the same amount of food each week. The dog food lasted eight weeks.

How much dog food did Doris feed her dogs each week?

Answer 1

Hi Ebony

This a a straight division problem. You are dividing the total pounds of dog food by the number of weeks it lasted.

100 (pounds) ÷ 8 weeks = ? Pounds/Week
