A certain animal in the zoo has consumed 39 pounds of food in six days. If it continues to eat at the same rate, in how many more days will its total consumption be 91 pounds?

Asked by CasseySchnack132

Answer (3)

14 pounds because it eats 6.5 pounds a day (39 divided by 6) and you take the 91 pounds and divide it by the amount of food it eats in 1 day to get your total

It will be 14 days to get 91

The animal will require 8 more days to reach a total food consumption of 91 pounds. It eats at a rate of 6.5 pounds per day and has 52 pounds left to reach its goal. Therefore, it will take 8 additional days to consume the remaining food.
