A bag of cat food contains 4 pounds. Each serving is 1/4 of a cup. How many servings are in the bag?

16

Step-by-step explanation:

each pound has 3.6 cups

1/4 of a pound can be multiplied

3.6 x 1/4 =  0.9

then we subtract 4 - 3.6 = 0.4 say if the question was for one pound

But we have to find  14.4 cups instead as;

3.6 x 4 = 14.4 = 4 pounds

We go back to 0.9 are first smaller serving = 1/4 cup

14.4/0.9 = 16
