Answer:

1/2 pound for each dog.

Step-by-step explanation:

Don't get confused. There are only 2 numbers which will give 2 different answers: 2 and 1/2. Which one is correct?

You want the units to be pounds per dog or pounds/ number of dogs.

The numerator is 6.5

The denominator is dogs (13)

Food per dog = 6.5 / 13 = 1/2
