Dylan's dog weighs 12 times as much is his pet rabbit. The dog and rabbit way 104 pounds altogether how much is Dylan's dog weigh?

D = dogs weight

r = rabbit weight

translations:

d = 12r

r = r

we are trying to solve for d in the equation

d + r = 104, and we know d = 12r.

so we get

12r + r = 104

combine like terms

13r = 104

divide 13 on both sides

r = 8.

we now know the rabbit weighs 8 pounds and the dog weighs 12x more than the rabbit. so multiply 8 by 12 to get 96.

the dog weighs 96 pounds.

the other answer is incorrect, how can a dog weigh 2000 pounds! make sure to check the answer to see if it is right.

104+104=208 * 12=2496
