Kendall feeds her cat a total of 45 cup of food every day. She feeds it 12 cup of food in the evening. Solve an equation to find how much food she gives to the cat the rest of the day. Write your answer in fraction form only.
To find how much food Kendall gives to her cat the rest of the day, we can subtract the amount of food she feeds in the evening from the total amount of food she feeds in a day.
Let's represent the amount of food Kendall gives to her cat the rest of the day as "x" (in cup).
We know that the total amount of food Kendall gives to her cat every day is 45 cups, and she feeds 12 cups in the evening. So, the equation becomes:
x + 12 = 45
To find the value of "x," we can subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:
x + 12 - 12 = 45 - 12
x = 33
Therefore, Kendall gives her cat 33 cups of food the rest of the day.
Written in fraction form, this is: 33/1.
To find out how much food Kendall gives to her cat for the rest of the day, we can subtract the amount she gives in the evening from the total amount she gives in a day.
Let's assume x represents the amount of food she gives to the cat for the rest of the day.
So, we can create the equation:
x + 12 = 45
To isolate x, we need to get rid of the 12, which is added to x. We can do this by subtracting 12 from both sides of the equation:
x = 45 - 12
Simplifying the right side of the equation:
x = 33
Therefore, Kendall gives her cat 33 cups of food for the rest of the day.
Answer: 33/1 or simply 33 cups.
Let x be the amount of food Kendall gives the cat the rest of the day. Then we know that:
x + 12 = 45
Subtracting 12 from both sides, we get:
x = 33
So Kendall gives her cat 33/1 or 33 cups of food the rest of the day.
