4\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

To take the square root of a fraction, break the fraction into two separate roots then calculate the square root of the numerator and denominator separately:

\( \sqrt{\frac{81}{9}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{81}}{\sqrt{9}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{9^2}}{\sqrt{3^2}} \)
\( \frac{9}{3} \)

13
10
5
14

Solution

If the tiger has consumed 54 pounds of food in 9 days that's \( \frac{54}{9} \) = 6 pounds of food per day. The tiger needs to consume 84 - 54 = 30 more pounds of food to reach 84 pounds total. At 6 pounds of food per day that's \( \frac{30}{6} \) = 5 more days.
