Question Jillian goes to the pet store to buy food for his dogs. He buys a 15-lb. bag of dog food for his dog Bingo, who will finish it in 10 days. He buys a 20-lb. bag of dog food for his dog Buddy, who will finish it in 16 days. Which dog will eat more dog food per day, Bingo or Buddy? How much food will that dog eat?(1 point) Responses Buddy will eat more dog food at 1.5 lb. per day. Buddy will eat more dog food at 1.5 lb. per day. Buddy will eat more dog food at 1.25 lb. per day. Buddy will eat more dog food at 1.25 lb. per day. Bingo will eat more dog food at 1.25 lb. per day. Bingo will eat more dog food at 1.25 lb. per day. Bingo will eat more dog food at 1.5 lb. per day.
To determine which dog will eat more dog food per day, we need to calculate the amount of dog food that each dog eats per day.
For Bingo:
Bingo eats a 15-lb. bag of dog food in 10 days. So, Bingo eats 15/10 = 1.5 lb. of dog food per day.
For Buddy:
Buddy eats a 20-lb. bag of dog food in 16 days. So, Buddy eats 20/16 = 1.25 lb. of dog food per day.
Therefore, Bingo will eat more dog food per day at a rate of 1.5 lb. per day.
