Answer:

  • 9 puppies can be fed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

  • A dog is fed 312 cups of food.
  • A puppy is fed 35 of that.

To Find:

  • How much is the puppy fed?

Let us assume:

  • x puppies can be fed.

Finding the number of puppy:

Puppy : Food = Puppy : Food

⟶ 35 : 1 = 312 : x

⟶ 35/1 = 312/x

Cross multiplication.

⟶ 35x = 312

⟶ x = 312/35

⟶ x = 9 (approx.)

Hence,

  • 9 puppies can be fed.
