David has two very large dogs, Major and Jumbo. Major weighs 100 pounds, and Jumbo weighs 150 pounds. They eat dry dog food, which comes in a 40-pound bag that costs $30. Together, Major and Jumbo eat a whole bag in one week. Major eats 2/5 of a bag while Jumbo eats the rest. How much would it cost to feed Jumbo in February, which has 28 days?
BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Respuesta :

The answer would be $72.

Step-by-step-explanation

If you were just feeding Jumbo and he ate 3/5 of the bag that would be 24 pounds.

If he ate that much for 28 days which is 4 weeks that would be 96 pounds.

Since each 40 pound bag costs $30 an 80 pound bag would be $60

So you know it costs 80 more dollars but now you need ti find what one pound cost so you divide 30/40 and get .75 cents which is how much one pound cost.

Now you know 80 pounds equals $60 but your looking for how much 96 pounds cost. So you need to find the reminder which would be 96-80 which is 16.

Then you multiply how much 1 pound costs which is .75 cents with 16 pounds and you get $12.

The last step you do is add the $60+$12 and you get $72 which is how much it would cost to feed Jumbo in February (which has 28 days).
