Since there is .85 pounds of dog food fed to the dog everyday it saiz that how many are left in 7 days so our equation is 10-7(.85)=x 10-5.95=x x=4.05 yet is says round it to the nearest pound so its 4 pounds

After feeding their dogs 0.85 pounds of dog food daily for 7 days from an initial 10 pounds, the family has about 4 pounds left. This is calculated by subtracting the total food consumed, which is 5.95 pounds, from the initial amount. The final answer, rounded to the nearest pound, is 4 pounds.
