brought to you by rabbits They insisted that we have

00:09

to do it Okay At six weeks of age or

00:12

rabbit should consume two point six grams of food per

00:15

meal If a rabbit consumes three meals a day how

00:19

many grams of food will rabbit consume in seven days

00:23

on potential answers Think about it Think about it Think

00:25

about it Okay so one way to go about this

00:29

problem would be to physically get a hold of a

00:31

rabbit and then feed it exactly Two point six grams

00:35

of food three times a day for a week And

00:37

then just you know check to see how many total

00:40

grams you've dished out You know it's probably not the

00:42

easiest way but especially since rabbits on currently season let's

00:46

do this one The math the way the first thing

00:49

we need to do is make sure we understand all

00:51

the information given to us And what exactly The questions

00:54

asking Well visualize things to make it simpler And since

00:57

actual rabbits are ah big ask we'll use pictures of

01:16

three meals a day so each day she eats two

01:20

point six times three grams of food or seven point

01:23

eight grams Hey that's answer eh Not so fast Patients

01:28

we must have you know we've only figured out how

01:31

many grams of food are consumed per day Well the

01:34

question asked for the total over the course of seven

01:37

days go back to mop See she keeps chowing down

01:40

day in and day out for the duration of a

01:43

full week which means we'll need to take that seven

01:45

point eight grams and multiplied by seven can result Fifty

01:49

four point six grams of food Answer see sadly we

01:52

discovered on day for that mob see and gone off
