Last week, Malika's cat slept 18 hours each day. Her baby slept 91 hours total for the week. Compare the proportional relationship of the number of hours the cat and baby sleep each day. (1 point)

Answer 1

To compare the proportional relationship, we need to find the average number of hours each day for both the cat and the baby.

The cat slept 18 hours each day for a total of 18 * 7 = <<18*7=126>>126 hours for the week.
The average number of hours the cat slept each day is 126 / 7 = <<126/7=18>>18 hours.

The baby slept a total of 91 hours for the week. To find the average number of hours each day, we divide by 7: 91 / 7 = <<91/7=12.99>>12.99 hours (rounded to the nearest hundredth).

The proportional relationship shows that the cat sleeps 18 hours each day on average, while the baby sleeps approximately 13 hours each day on average.

Answer 2

ABoth the cat and the baby spend less than half the hours of the day sleeping.

BThe baby slept fewer hours per day than the cat.

CThe cat slept fewer hours per day than the baby.

D The cat and the baby slept the same amount of

Answer 3

C. The cat slept fewer hours per day than the baby.
