First, let's find out how many buckets of fish the dolphins are fed each day:
1/2 bucket of fish
Now let's calculate how much fish the sea otters are fed:
1 2/3 times 1/2 bucket = 5/3 * 1/2 = 5/6
Therefore, the sea otters are fed 5/6 of a bucket of fish each day.
The dolphins at the Webster Aquarium are fed 1/2
of a bucket of fish each day. The sea otters are fed 1 2/3
times as much fish as the dolphins. How many buckets of fish are the sea otters fed each day?
