Ms. Gooden feeds stray cats in the park every evening. She never knows how many cats will come to be fed. The food is always shared equally among the cats that are at the park. One evening, when 6 cups of cat food were shared, each cat received 2/3 cup of cat food. How many cats were fed that evening?
9 cats were fed that evening.
Step-by-step explanation:
6 divided by 2/3 equals 9, so 9 cats were fed that evening.
Hope this helps
(2/3)cups/cat * X cats = 6.
2x/3 = 6,
X = 9.

To find out how many cats were fed, we can use basic math and algebra. Let's assume the number of cats that were fed is "x".
According to the given information, the total amount of food shared is 6 cups, and each cat received 2/3 cup of food.
So, if we multiply the number of cats (x) by the amount of food each cat received (2/3 cup), it should equal the total amount of food shared (6 cups).
Therefore, we can set up the equation:
(x) * (2/3) = 6
To solve for x, we can simplify the equation by multiplying both sides by 3/2:
x = (6) * (3/2)
x = 18/2
x = 9
Therefore, Ms. Gooden fed 9 cats that evening.
