Malala bought a 5-pound bag of dog food. She feeds her dog 1/3 pound of dog food every day. How many days will the bag of food last? Group of answer choices 5 days, 15 days 2 days or 18 days?

Answer 1

Total amount of dog food = 5lb

dog food used per day = 1/3 lb

to find the number of days this 5lb would last you have to divide the total amount of food by the amount you use each day.

This is a division problem - you have to divide the whole number 5 by the fraction 1/3

I will let you complete the rest of the problem.
