Question

A camping group began with 240 pounds of food and each day consumed about 12 pounds after how many days did they have 180 pounds left does anyone know step by step ?

Answer 1

Five days

Explanation:

First, we have to find out how much food they ate:

240 - 180 = 60

Now, we have to find out the number of days they would take to eat 60 pounds of food. We can do that by dividing:

60/12 = 5

They took five days to have 180 pounds leftover.

Answer 2

240-180=60 so 60 divided by 12= 5 so it took 5 days
