Dany owns a farm, in his farm he has 4 cows and 3 sheep that eat 2 bushels a day. He also has 7 chickens that eat 3 bushels a day. How many bushels should he have to suffice the animals for a day?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
Dany has to have 4 x 2 = 8 bushels a day for the cows. He has to have 3 x 2 = 6 bushels a day for the sheep. And he also has to have 7 x 3 = 21 bushels a day for the chickens. Therefore, Dany has to have 8 + 6 + 21 = 35 bushels to suffice the animals for a day.
Thus, the answer is 35.
