Problema Solution
Charlie owns two dogs. Each day, one dog eats 1/5 of a scoop of dog food and the other dog eats 3/5 of a scoop. Together, how much dog food do the two dogs eat each day?
Answer provided by our tutors
To find the amount of food the two dogs eat each day we need to add 1/5 to 3/5:
1/5 + 3/5 = (1 + 3)/5 = 4/5
The two dogs together eat 4/5 of a scoop per day.
