Roxie is a show dog. Her trainer wants her to have a beautiful
and brilliant coat. The veterinarian suggested a special diet for
the trainer to follow. Each feeding, Roxie eats 2/3 of a can of wet
dog food, 1/8 of a bag of dry dog food, and 3/5 a patty of special
meat. The special meat comes in a package of 6 patties. Roxie has
two meals a day.The dog is completely out of food. The trainer goes
to the store and buys 24 cans of wet food, 4 bags of dry food and 3
packages of meat. How many days will the dog be fed before the
trainer needs to buy any more food? Which type of dog food will the
trainer run out of first? Explain. How much of the other two types
of dog food will be left after the first type of dog food runs out?
The trainer wants to plan better. She goes to the store on the day
she ran out of the first type of dog food. She decides to buy
enough dog food to last 90 days. Knowing what she already has in
the house, how much more of each type of dog food does she need to
buy in order to use up all the food in 90 days? Is it possible?
Explain. What is the minimum amount of food the trainer could buy
such that the dog would finish all of it after a certain number of
meals? Explain.
