Answer to Question 1

3

Rationale 1: Days/bottle = 1 day/8 tabs x 60 tabs/1 bottle. Multiply the numerators (1 x 60 = 60). Multiply the denominators (8 x 1 = 8). 60/8 = 7.5 days.

Answer to Question 2

4

Rationale 1: Cans per feeding = 1 can/12 ounces x 24 ounces/feeding. Multiply the numerators (1 x 24 = 24). Multiply the denominators (12 x 1 = 12). 24/12 = 2 cans per feeding.
