There are 6 puppies in a litter. Each puppy eats ½ a cup of food three times a day. How many cups of food does the litter go through each day?

9 cups of food

Step-by-step explanation:

First find out the amount of food that one puppy eats per day.

Each puppy eats 0.5 cups of food three times a day which means that in total they eat:

= 0.5 * 3

= 1.5 cups of food.

There are 6 puppies in the litter so the total amount of food they eat is:

= 1.5 * 6 puppies

= 9 cups of food

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
