Question

emilio’s dog eats \\(\frac{3}{2}\\) cups of food in one serving. e... know how many servings of food are in the bag. which model represents the number of cups of food in one serving? two number line models and a dog image

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the fraction

The dog eats $\frac{3}{2}$ cups per serving. $\frac{3}{2}$ is equal to $1\frac{1}{2}$ or 1.5.

Step2: Analyze the number lines

We need to find the model that represents 1.5 (or $\frac{3}{2}$) on the number line. Looking at the number lines, we check the position of the marked point. The first number line (with the smaller rectangle) likely marks 1.5 correctly as it should be halfway between 1 and 2 (since $\frac{3}{2}=1 + \frac{1}{2}$). The second number line's marking seems off. So the top model (first one) represents $\frac{3}{2}$ cups.

Answer:

The top model (the one with the smaller shaded rectangle above the number line) represents the number of cups of food in one serving.
