A dog groomer could clean 5 dogs in a hour. How many could they clean in 1/2 of a hour.

Question

How to do this problem

Answer 1

Hi Clarence! The easiest way to solve this problem is to just divide the number of dogs cleaned in an hour by 2, since we need to know how many dogs are cleaned in a half hour, not a full hour. So divide 5 by 2 and the answer is 2.5 dogs. Hope this helps!
