Let x represent kilograms of meat needed to feed 4 dragons.
We have been given that Amara needs 45 kilograms of meat to feed her 2 pet dragons each day. We are asked to find the kilograms of meat needed to feed 4 dragons.
We will use proportions to solve our given problem.
[tex]\frac{\text{Food needed}}{\text{Number of dragons}}=\frac{45\text{ kg}}{2}[/tex]
Upon substituting our values in above equation, we will get:
[tex]\frac{x}{4}=\frac{45\text{ kg}}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x}{4}\cdot 4=\frac{45\text{ kg}}{2}\cdot 4[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{45\text{ kg}}{1}\cdot 2[/tex]
[tex]x=90\text{ kg}[/tex]
Therefore, Amara needs 90 kg meat to feed 4 pet dragons each day.
