Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. Lynne feeds her cat65g of cat food per day. . There are7 days in a week.
3. There are5 weeks in the period we are considering.
4. The conversion rate from grams to ounces is10 oz =28.3 g.

STEP 2

First, we need to find the total amount of cat food Lynne feeds her cat in5 weeks in grams. We can do this by multiplying the daily amount by the number of days in5 weeks.
$Total\, grams = Daily\, amount \times Number\, of\, days$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the daily amount and the number of days to calculate the total grams.
$Total\, grams =65g \times5 \times7$

STEP 4

Calculate the total grams of cat food.
$Total\, grams =65g \times \times7 =227g$

STEP 5

Now that we have the total grams of cat food, we can convert this to ounces using the given conversion rate. We can do this by dividing the total grams by the number of grams in10 ounces and then multiplying by10 to get the total ounces.
$Total\, ounces = (Total\, grams / Grams\, in\,10\, ounces) \times10$

STEP 6

Plug in the values for the total grams and the number of grams in10 ounces to calculate the total ounces.
$Total\, ounces = (2275g /28.3g) \times10$

STEP 7

Calculate the total ounces of cat food.
$Total\, ounces = (2275g /28.3g) \times10 =802.82 oz$ ynne will feed her cat about802.82 ounces of cat food in5 weeks.
