On an average day, a horse might drink 50 L, a sheep might drink 4 L, and a chicken might drink 200 mL. How much water would a farm with 3 horses, 15 sheep, and 12 chickens need for a day?
We have 3 horses, so we can do [tex]3*50=150\\[/tex]. Then we have 15 sheep, so [tex]15*4=60[/tex]. 1000 mL is 1 L, so if we do [tex]12*200=2400[/tex] mL. [tex]2400/1000=2.4[/tex]L, so 150+60+2.4=212.4 L.
