14. (5 points) Draw an illustration to help solve. Angela has a pet cat, dog and pig. She feeds the dog twice as much as the cat and the dog eats 2/3 as much as the pig. She feeds the animals a total of 42 scoops of food per week. What fractional part of the food does each pet get? How many scoops of food does each animal receive per week? Picture of problem: The cat gets of the food which equals scoops per week. The dog gets of the food which equals scoops per week. The pig gets of the food which equals scoops per week. Screenshot 2023... 7. (3 points) Which fraction is closer to ½? $\frac{10}{21}$ or $\frac{8}{15}$? Explain your thinking without using any calculation including decimals or a common denominator. 8. (6 points) State the amount that each question refers to: $\frac{2}{3}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = $\frac{1}{12}$ What does the $\frac{2}{3}$ refer to? What does the $\frac{3}{4}$ refer to? What does the $\frac{1}{12}$ refer to? $1 \frac{1}{2}$ + $\frac{4}{3}$ = $\frac{3}{2}$ What does the $1 \frac{1}{2}$ refer to? What does the $\frac{4}{3}$ refer to? What does the $\frac{3}{2}$ refer to?
