Randy's dog food would only last for 16 days.
- Let the total quantity of dog food be T.
- Let the quantity of dog food per day be D.
Given the following data:
- Total quantity of dog food = 128 ounces.
- Quantity of dog food per day = 8 ounces.
To find how many days the dog food would last for:
In this exercise, you're required to find the number of days it would take for Randy's dog food to last, if he feeds the dog 8 ounces of food each day.
Thus, we would divide the two parameters as a ratio:
[tex]Number\; of \;days = \frac{T}{D}\\\\Number\; of \;days = \frac{128}{8}[/tex]
Number of days = 16 days.
Therefore, Randy's dog food would only last for 16 days.
