    Answer: A sixty day supply of cat food for her two cats will cost her $125

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Carol has two cats Rover and Bobo.

    Let x = the quantity of a can of fast food.

    Rover eats three fourths of a can of cat food each day. This means that Rover eats 3x/4 each day. Bobo eats a half of a can of cat food each day. This means that bobo eats x/2 each day.

    Cat food costs five dollars for three cans. This means that 3x = 5

    Total number of cans consumed by both dogs in a day is 3x/4 + x/2 = 5x/4

    That means the cost per day would be

    (5x/4 * 5) / 3x = 25x/4 * 1/3x

    = 25/12

    It costs her $25/12 per day

    To determine the cost for 60 days, we would multiply the cost per day by 60. It becomes

    25/12 * 60 = $125
