if a frog catches 8 bugs in 3 hours , how many will the frog catch in one week ?

To find out how many bugs the frog will catch in one week, we first need to determine how many bugs the frog catches per hour.
To do this, we can divide the total number of bugs caught (8) by the total number of hours (3):
8 bugs / 3 hours = 2.67 bugs per hour (rounded to the nearest whole number)
Now that we know the frog catches approximately 2.67 bugs per hour, we can calculate how many bugs it will catch in one day.
Since there are 24 hours in a day, we multiply the number of bugs caught per hour (2.67) by 24:
2.67 bugs per hour x 24 hours = 64 bugs per day (rounded to the nearest whole number)
Finally, to determine how many bugs the frog will catch in a week, we multiply the number of bugs caught per day (64) by 7:
64 bugs per day x 7 days = 448 bugs in one week
Therefore, the frog will catch approximately 448 bugs in one week.
If the frog catches bugs 24 hours a day (doubtful), then cross multiply and solve for x.
8/3 = x / 168
