Question

There are 49 dogs signed up for a dog show .There are 36 more small dogs than large dogs . how many small dogs have signed up to complete?​

Answer 1

Answer:

To figure out how many small dogs are competing, you have to subtract 36 from 49 and then divide that answer, 13 by 2, to get 6.5 dogs, or the number of big dogs competing. But you’re not done yet! You then have to add 6.5 to 36 to get the number of small dogs competing, which is 42.5. Of course, it’s not actually possible for half a dog to compete in a dog show, but for the sake of this math problem let’s assume that it is.

have a great day

Answer 2

To break it down, if there are 49 dogs total, and there are 36 more small dogs than large dogs, you'd subtract 36 from 49. By that measure, there are 13 large dogs and 36 small dogs… so that means the answer is 36 small dogs, right?
