Question

Matt bought a 20 pound bag of dog food for his dog, Hunter. On Monday Hunter ate 1
`(3)/(4)` pounds of the dog food. On Tuesday, Hunter ate 2
`(1)/(3)` pounds of the dog food, and on Wednesday Hunter ate 2
`(3)/(5)`. How much dog food is left in the bag?

Answer 1

You need to add 1 3/4, 2 1/3, and 2 3/4. But before you do that you need to make them decimals. Add 1.75, 2.33, and 2.75 Equals 6.83 Then subtract it by 20.00 Equals 13.17 Then you make that a decimal 13 17/100
