You must show your working.

Answer: The cat food will feed the cats for 4 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi since each cat eats of a tin of cat food each day, and she has two cats, the number of tins of cat food used per day is 2.

2 cats x 1 tin of cat foot = 2 tins of cat food

Now, we have to divide the number of tins of cat food bought (9) by the number of tins of cat food used per day (2)

9 / 2 = 4.5 days

The cat food will feed the cats for 4.5 days. Rounded to a whole number, he can feed the cats for 4 days and 1 can is left for both cats.

She can feed her cats for 4 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each cat eats a tin of can food each day, that is 2 per day. 2x4=8 which means there will be one tin left over.
