Given:
The vet tells him his cat's weight is ⁵/₈ as his dog's weight.
Question:
How much does his cat weigh?
The Process:
Since the vet tells him his cat's weight is part of his dog's weight by ⁵/₈ part, let us create an 8-unit pattern that represents the dog's weight.
And now, let us find out the cat's weight. As we know, the cats' weight is ⁵/₈ the dog's weight.
The cat's weight:
Recall this
Recall this
as a mixed fraction
as a decimal fraction
Thus, his cat weigh is
