Question

Dog food is sold in a 12 ½ pound bag. My dog, Max, eats a ¾ pound serving every day. How many servings of dog food are in the bag?

Answer 1

the pound bag has 25/2 of dog food, or 50/4

if the dog eats 3/4, and the pound has 50/4

$\frac{50}{4} . \frac{4}{3} = \frac{50}{3}$

if you divide 50 by 3, you'll find 16,66666...

since you need full days, the answer is 16 days

hope it helps :)
