Oliver feeds his dog a total of 3/4 cup of food every day in themorning he gives his dog 1/3 cup of food Solve an eqation to find how much food Oliver gives to his dog the rest of the day. (1 point)
2/1 cups
5/12 cup
3/12 cup
13/12 or 1 1/12 cup
To find out how much food Oliver gives his dog the rest of the day, we can subtract the morning feeding (1/3 cup) from the total daily feeding (3/4 cup).
Total daily feeding - Morning feeding = Rest of the day feeding
3/4 cup - 1/3 cup = Rest of the day feeding
To subtract the fractions, we need a common denominator, which in this case is 12. So, 3/4 is the same as 9/12 and 1/3 is the same as 4/12.
Rest of the day feeding = 9/12 cup - 4/12 cup
Rest of the day feeding = 5/12 cup
Therefore, Oliver gives his dog 5/12 cup of food for the rest of the day.
