Answer:
20 scoops
Step-by-step explanation:
Zack fills two bird feeders with birdseed. Each bird feeder holds 2 1/2 cups of birdseed.
Hence, the two bird feeders would require:
2 × 2 1/2 cups of bird seed.
= 5 cups of bird seed
Zack's scoop holds 1/4 cup. Write an expression for the number of scoops Zack needs to fill both feeders.
The number of scoops zack needs to fill both feeders is:
= 5 ÷ 1/4
= 5 × 4/1
= 20 scoops
Zack would need 20 scoops to fill both feeders.
