You are organizing a pet show. forty dogs will be shown the first morning. four minutes will be allowed for each dog to be shown and one minute for cleanup after each dog. use the distributive property to find out how long the morning session will be.

the morning session will be 200 minutes long (3.34 hours)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, we have to write an expression:

The number of dogs is multiplied by the amount of minutes that the morning session lasts. Since the morning session consists of 4 minutes of cleaning + 1 minute of cleanup per dog, and the number of dogs is 40:

40 (4 + 1) =40(4) + 40(1) =160 +40 =200 minutes

Since 60 minutes = 1 hour

200 minutes /60 minutes /hour = 3.34 hours
