Show your work.A DAYAT THE ZOO  \n1. The zoo ordered 14 boxes of animal feed. Each box contains 6 large bags. If thezookeepers use 2 bags of feed per day, how many days will the feed last?  \n2. Each elephant eats 250 pounds of food per day. If the zoo has 3 elephants, howmuch food do they eat in a week?  \n3. The zoo’s butterfly exhibit has 9 enclosures. Each enclosure has 4 habitats, andeach habitat houses 15 butterflies. How many butterflies are in the exhibit?  \n4. A reptile keeper prepares 3 trays of food each day. Each tray holds 12 mealportions. If she prepares food for 4 days, how many portions does she make intotal?  \n5. The zoo opens at 9:00 AM and closes at 5:00 PM. During the day, 480 guestsarrive in groups of 6. If each group is assigned 2 tour guides, how many tour guidesare needed?  \nMashup Math LLC  \n|  \nAll Rights Reserved  \n|  \nGet More K-12 Math Worksheets at www.mashupmath.com 1  \n6. A penguin tank is cleaned every 3 days. If the tank was last cleaned 24 days ago,how many times has it been cleaned since then?  \n7. A gift shop at the zoo sold 36 shirts, 48 hats, and 60 mugs. If each donationbundle must have an equal number of each item, what is the greatest number ofidentical bundles they can make?  \n8. A tour group visits 5 animal zones. In each zone, they stop at 3 exhibits and take 4photos per exhibit. How many total photos do they take?  \n9. The zookeeper logs the average number of visitors per hour. Between 10 AM and  \n4 PM, the zoo had a total of 1,440 visitors. If each hour had the same number ofvisitors, how many visited per hour?  \n## 10.
