Answer:
The dog ate 3.94 pounds of food.
Step-by-step explanation:
Courthouse dog ate 9 ounces of food each day for seven days.
So total food consumed by the dog in seven days will be = 9×7 ounces
Or Total food consumed = 63 ounces.
Now we convert ounces to pounds.
As we know 16 ounces = 1 pound
Or we can say 1 ounce = [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex] pounds
Therefore 63 ounces =63× [tex](\frac{1}{16})[/tex] pounds
= 3.94 pounds
Finally the answer is courthouse dog ate 3.94 pounds of food in seven days.
