Question

a dog groomer can bathe five dogs in one hour. how many could she bathe in \\(\frac{8}{10}\\) of an hour? 3 dogs 4 dogs 1 dog 2 dogs

Explanation:

Step1: Determine the rate

The groomer can bathe 5 dogs in 1 hour, so the rate is 5 dogs per hour.

Step2: Calculate the number of dogs in $\frac{8}{10}$ hour

To find the number of dogs bathed in $\frac{8}{10}$ hour, we multiply the rate by the time. So we calculate $5\times\frac{8}{10}$.
Simplify $\frac{8}{10}$ to $\frac{4}{5}$, then $5\times\frac{4}{5} = 4$.

Answer:

4 dogs
