cup

Answer 1

4/5 1/2

Answer 2

you sure

Answer 3

\(\frac{3}{4}\) cup

Answer 4

The correct answer is \( \frac{7}{10} \) cup.

Answer 5

I apologize for the confusion earlier. Let me correct this:

Let x be the amount of food Kendall feeds her cat in the evening, then the total amount is 45 cups. We can write this as an equation:

x + \(\frac{3}{4}\) = 45

Subtract \(\frac{3}{4}\) from both sides:

x = 45 - \(\frac{3}{4}\)
x = \(\frac{180}{4}\) - \(\frac{3}{4}\)
x = \(\frac{177}{4}\)
x = \(\frac{177}{4}\)

Therefore, Kendall feeds her cat \( \frac{177}{4} \) cups of food in the evening and \( \frac{177}{4} \) cup of food the rest of the day.
