Last week, Malika‘s cat slept 18 hours each day. Her baby slept 91 hours total for the week. Compare the proportional relationship of the number of hours the cat and baby slept each day.
To compare the proportional relationship, we can divide the total number of hours by the number of days.
The cat slept for 18 hours each day, so the total number of hours for the week is 18 * 7 = <<18*7=126>>126 hours.
The baby slept for 91 hours total for the week.
So the proportional relationship is:
Cat's sleep per day: 18 hours/day
Baby's sleep per day: 91 hours/7 days = 13 hours/day
Therefore, the baby slept proportionally less than the cat each day.
To compare the proportional relationship between the number of hours the cat and baby slept each day, we first need to determine how many hours each of them slept per day.
Since the cat slept 18 hours each day last week, and there are 7 days in a week, we can calculate the number of hours the cat slept per day by dividing the total hours it slept by the number of days:
18 hours/day = 18 hours/1 day = 18 hours/day
Next, we need to determine the number of hours the baby slept per day. We know that the baby slept a total of 91 hours for the week. Since there are 7 days in a week, we can calculate the number of hours the baby slept per day by dividing the total hours by the number of days:
91 hours/7 days ≈ 13 hours/day
Therefore, the proportional relationship between the number of hours the cat and baby slept each day is as follows:
Cat: 18 hours/day
Baby: 13 hours/day
To compare the proportional relationship of the number of hours the cat and baby slept each day, we need to calculate the number of hours each of them slept per day.
First, let's determine the number of days in the week. As there are seven days in a week, we'll use that value.
The cat slept 18 hours each day. To calculate the total number of hours the cat slept for the week, we need to multiply the hours per day by the number of days in a week.
Total hours the cat slept = 18 hours/day * 7 days/week = 126 hours/week
The baby slept 91 hours total for the week. To calculate the number of hours the baby slept each day, divide the total hours for the week by the number of days.
Hours the baby slept per day = 91 hours/ 7 days/week ≈ 13 hours/day (rounded to nearest whole number)
So, the cat slept 18 hours per day, while the baby slept approximately 13 hours per day. This means that the cat slept more than the baby each day in a proportional comparison.
