Answer:

$(5)/(3)\ \text{pounds}$

Explanation:

George bought a bag of dog food that was 1/3 pounds.

George fed his dog 5 times with this bag of food.

We need to find how many pounds of food did the dog eat at each feeding. Let it be x.

$x=(1)/(3)* 5\\\\x=(5)/(3)\ \text{pounds}$

So, the dog eat
$(5)/(3)\ \text{pounds}$ of food at each feeding.
